[QUOTE="Pielorinho, post: 1012044, member: 259"] [b]Re: Re: More 3.5 Errata Fodder: How to Charge past your friends[/b] I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. It pretty clearly says, under the section about your victim choosing to avoid you, "In either case [i.e., cases where the opponent avoids you], the overrun attempt doesn't count against your actions this round." I understand this to mean that you are still considered to be charging. Nowhere in the section was there text suggesting that you'd no longer be considered charging. Are you suggesting that you wouldn't be able to overrun a SECOND person after the first person moves out of the way? That may be true; I know that in 3.0, you could only attempt one overrun per round, and that rule may still be in there. As it is, I think it's clear from the rules that you can use a loophole to charge past opponents but not past allies. Somebody thought it would be reasonable to disallow charging through squares occupied by allies, apparently, and added text to that effect to the charge rules (in 3.0, nothing prevented you from charging past allies). They hadn't, however, taken the overrun action into consideration when they made this change. The more I read my 3.5 books, the clearer it becomes that they did less playtesting than they'd done for 3.0. Daniel [/QUOTE]
