You cannot take amove action during the round the spell is cas, but can take a 5-foot step before or after casting the spell. If a spell has a casting time longer than one action, it takes an extra full-round action to cast when using a metamagic feat.For example, Hennet casts a maximized magic missile.He must use a full-round action to cast the spell, but he can take a 5-foot step first to leave a threatened space. If he uses Extend Spell and starts casting a Summon Monster I spell, which has a full-round casting time, he continues casting until his next turn (as with any other spell having a casting time of more than one action). When it's his turn again, however, the spell isn't yet complete, and Hennet must use the rest of that round to finish casting. He can still take a 5-foot step at the end of casting, however."This example also clearly implies the difference between FRA and FRS.Greg</blockquote>
