[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 5950275, member: 29398"] First off, I far prefer to think in terms of actions per round rather than actions per turn, as I'm not a fan of the hard-coded turn-based system 3e and 4e use and prefer something that allows for a bit more fluidity. As for what can be done in a round (assuming no haste/slow/etc. effects): - any one item can be used; includes a wand, or a potion, or an effect from a ring, whatever; with a partial move - or - any one full attack sequence can be done without movement, with each separate attack getting its own initiative (in other words, NOT all at once) - or - a full move (includes charge) and maybe a single attack - or - a spell can be cast with a partial move Things like speech, turning and fleeing, falling down, etc. are free actions and can be done at any time unless for some reason the DM has asked you to hold (usually while she resolves something else). Seems simple enough... Lan-"a turn is defined as ten minutes around here, a round is 30 seconds"-efan [/QUOTE]
