Move Equivalent Action.

[AGGEMAM]

PS: Could you combine drawing a weapon with that partial charge (assuming your BAB is +1 or higher)?

Not unless you had Quick Draw, because the moving part of a charge is not 'a regular move', it is a charge.

Is Magus Jerel that goober who says Mages can cast 2 spells in a round without haste by the rules because a partial action can be a move action then LOGICALLY a move action can be a partial action?

Yep, it is.

Wonder what he is doing now .. oh well ..

Probably wondering why all his players started not being able to make it to the game... Especially the fighters.

On a different note, why is it feasible at all to:

1) Get up.
2) Move.
3) Attack.

That's 3 actions. It shouldn't be allowed at all,

Good point, perhaps it would be better if the designers had said "You cannot ready a partial charge.". That would clear up some of those "straight line" problems as well. Of course adding an exception complicates matters. Wonder how they do it in Star Wars...

Sorry, different way of talking I guess. In my lingo it's just another word for silly person. "Don't be a boob" = "Don't be silly" where I come from.

No problem - it was pretty mild.

In verbal communcations, I'd pretty freely say "what a boob" or even "what an idiot" - but I would not do so in writing anywhere - you never know who your audience is once you've written it down.

I generally stand by my opinion regardless of the audience, but I'm also generally very polite (or am I ? hmm).

 

[Artoomis]

Yes, you are very uisually very polite. Depending upon who I am talking with, I might seem quite rude to someone listening-in, while the person I am actually talking to might not find me rude at all.

That's why writing is different - no one can see your facial expressions, etc. So, to avoid misunderstanding, and because we live in a civlized society (well, mostly), we write differently than we speak, and try to be "nice" on these boards.

Also because we never know when Eric's Grandma might read what we've written!

Double post - quote instead of edit - typos - sheesh, how much can go wrong with a single post?!?

And you are still not done editing...


Btw, to get an idea of danish humor, before you invite me into your house, check this (scroll to the middle of 2nd page, roughly):

Hmm. I try this instead:

1)

There are 2 types of actions you can make:

Combat Actions. (Tabel 8-1).. Including Full attack and Full-round spell casting. An otherwise short list.

Miscellaneous actions (Tabel 8-4)

Limit on Partial Actions: (From [Start Full-Round Action]) You can only start a Miscellaneous Action (Not a Combat Action) with a partial action. (So never any Full-round Attacks that carries into the next round.)

2)

PHB. p. 127
As a general rule, you can do as much with a partial action as you could with a standard action minus a move.

All partial actions from Tabel 8-3 (Therefor Excluding [miscellaneous partial actions]) can be added a move and then become a standard action. Including Charge.

[Explanation on charge:

Charge is a standard action (Special or not) and therefor all movement is a part of the standard action. All movement in a Charge Standard Action is subject to the "movement during a charge" rule. It is therefor not important if you call it a Move + a Partial Charge (Making it a special standard action) or just a Charge.]


You can therefor also do a miscellaneous move-equivalent action (It is only important that it is a move-equivalent action) + a partial charge as a Standard Action.
