[QUOTE="Fangor the Fierce, post: 1985980, member: 17100"] Well, to further portray the scene, it was an honorable match, sort of in limbo, as it has no bearing on the campaign or characters. It is simply a 'what if' match. His character has always preached about his kindness and only sees things as either good or evil. No grey areas. He has even wanted to kill my character, when she was forced to flee with some not so good elves. She had to, and instead of continuing the flight, she slew the elves....with some help from two others. Needless to say, she called him out, saying she wanted an honorable match, to settle their differences. Even when she won initiative in the first round, and instead of sniping at him, she moved into position that he could see her, and called out to him, saying, "It would seem as though we are here to battle. This will be an honorable battle. I will not strike you until you have had a chance to know your enemy!" She waited until his action, to fire. Honorable fight....in her opinion. She then called him out to the battlefield, saying, "Seems as though your doubts in defeating a woman in combat make you call for help. How 'Honorable' of the 'Kind" one..." (He refers to himself as The Kind. She readies another arrow, but hesitates, readying it should he charge while mounted. She is giving him a chance to fight one on one... His reply to her as she takes cover not allowing his mount the ability to charge is, "These skirmish tactics are unworthy of a true warrior." Fitting.... Anyways, I looked at the references to page numbers and such, but still do not see where the move action of him mounting his horse denies his horse a full round of actions. I do see that His move action was to mount his horse. Another move action to draw his weapon, as drawing your weapon freely is only with a regular move, NOT a move equivalent action. It just seems weird that there are not any clear cut rules on mounting a horse or such and what other actions are left, in the same round. [/QUOTE]
