[QUOTE="Larrin, post: 4112146, member: 55816"] anyone who has seen full grown bull will understand why when it rushes, things move. Trust me, it makes sense. Bulls rush things, when they hit things move. Most Iron dragons i've seen don't move so much, they seem happy sitty on their little stands in the garden or servicing as a railing on the steps of a restaurant. Most charges of iron dragons involve purchasing them. Perhaps in D&D there will be Iron dragons, but i've not enough experience to know it their behavior is such that when they charge it somehow reflects the warlords ability. The name Iron Dragon Charge is really arbitrary, but that doesn't mean its a bad name. My name is more or less arbitrary, you have to get to know me before my name means anything, but i don't think its a bad name. What (for me) will determine how bad of a name iron dragon charge is how consistent it is with other iron dragon exploits. If 'Iron Dragon' means that when you do something, an ally gets an immedieate action to do the same thing, then its consistant and i can probably learn to at least guess what Iron Dragon Stike or Iron Dragon Push might do. If Iron dragon can mean anything (ie. if iron dragon strike means an ally gains +5 to morale or some such malarchy) then its a bad name because the iron dragon doesn't help me figure anything out about what the power will do. its really bad if only one ability has the Iron Dragon name because that means there's probably 15-20 arbitrary names for me to try and memorize the exact meaning of each with no help. I hope there is a logical consistancy. That would be nice. [/QUOTE]
