[QUOTE="delericho, post: 6321985, member: 22424"] I agree that that's what you're saying. It is, however, incorrect. This bit is correct. This bit is not. Using an Immediate action uses up your Swift action in your [i]next[/i] turn. You should probably reread the PHB definition of a 'round' again. It makes it clear that it's like our definition of "a week" - it can mean both "Sunday through to Saturday" [i]and[/i] "the time from today until next Friday". So, a round can be "from INIT 25ish to INIT 0", but it can also be "the time from my turn until my [i]next[/i] turn." -- Look at it like this: As soon as your turn ends, you gain an Immediate action. You can use this at any point from then on. If you [i]don't[/i] use it then when your turn comes along again, that Immediate action 'matures', and can now be used either as a Swift or an Immediate action. If you don't use it now, you lose it. Then, as soon as your turn ends (whether you used the previous Swift/Immediate or not), you gain an Immediate action. You can use this at any point from then on... [/QUOTE]
