Message: <blockquote data-quote="pemerton" data-source="post: 6993954" data-attributes="member: 42582">[MENTION=6787650]Hemlock[/MENTION], we cross-posted - I hadn't seen this when posting just upthread. (EDIT: and cross-posted again, but I think this post is still relevant.)My Latin is weak almost to the point of non-existence. Google translation gives me "I think that the initiative should be destroyed, however, cyclic". So I'm going to take it as "I think that cyclic initiative should go!", but I'm not sure where the "however" fits in.I'm familiar with that sort of thing. In principle 4e could be rife with it, but at my table it thankfully doesn't come up often enough to worry about, simply because of our particular PC builds and the way encounters tend to play out.I was assuming that they don't stop: that they charge and attack. The appearance of them stopping is simply an artefact of their turn ending - but in the fiction they just move quickly and strike with their spears. (I feel this is even more so in 5e which doesn't have a charge action, and so doesn't have any clear mechanical way of contrasting moving then pausing from attacking at the end of a move.)</blockquote>
