[QUOTE="Masada, post: 2271007, member: 19339"] Interesting idea to impose a minimum movement requirement every round to keep a Dex bonus... I like it. I also think opposed Attack rolls is more cinematic than opposed Str checks. Plus the suggested feat doesn't incur AoO for use on the target. AoO would still apply to adjacent combatants. On one side I don't want to get in to a complex weave of combat modifiers for terrain. On the other side I want to see skillful/heroic combatants in cinematic battles in motion. So I think feats that can force penalties or bonus might be a happy medium. You could just assume that the a successful use of the feat would result in a -2 Defense bonus. Since we rarely sketch in gravel to our 1" maps you can just cinematically assume it's there. Either way, at a GM I'm going to pay more careful attention to the battleground and it's potential. BTW, I did grab "Driven before me" from Conan. In the first movie one of his owners asks Conan what is best in life to which he replies, "To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women!" Good line...
