Therefore you can Twin it.What does the Booming Blade spell say?You target a creature with a melee attack because you "must make a melee attack". If it hits, it deals weapon damage + additional thundering effects.It doesn't say you take the Attack Action. It says as part of the spell that you make a melee attack.Therefore if you twin it, you get to make two attacks, one for each of the twinned portions. They both have to hit to have the thundering rider. Because metamagic bends the action economy for twin spell and quicken spell. That's what it does. Getting to make a second attack with that shouldn't be an issue here.Expending a sorcery point is already a big cost to do something like this, don't try to nerf it by complicated and convoluted examinations of language.</blockquote>
