[QUOTE="T. Foster, post: 3751996, member: 16574"] Interesting stuff on the move rates. I definitely concur on giving dwarves and hobbits a lower base move and elves a higher base move (not sure if I've ever posted about that before or not). Why do you gives elves in plate a 6" rather than 9" move -- just to disincentivize elves from wearing that type of armor (since it doesn't match the traditional image of elves)? I suppose that's as good a reason as any. Also, I notice you're going with the charge = double move AD&D rule rather than the charge = bonus move (usually about 1/3) Chainmail/S&S rule. How do you reconcile that with the S&S combat sequence where the charge bonus occurs in the second half of the move phase -- i.e. does a character who moves 12" (40') and charges 80' move 20' in the first move phase and 60' in the second, or do you ignore that part of the S&S sequence and set it at 40' and 40'?
