[QUOTE="IceBear, post: 501044, member: 1118"] No, that's your maximum distance moved per movement action, and thus, a speed. Yeah, I *think* that may have been in a previous edition, but it still makes sense to me. When you're walking through a dungeon (or possibly dangerous terrain) you aren't walking like you would in your own house. I'm just trying to come to grips with the discrepancy between one passage stating that you can walk 30ft per round, with how everywhere else movement is covered with move actions - where did your other action go? Seriously, if they meant your NORMAL speed to be your walking speed, then they should have given everyone a base speed of 15 and said in combat you can move twice that speed in one movement action. Since they didn't, I would think that the one stat that they give - 30ft - is your normal speed. Sorry, I should have quoted you earlier: "But to answer your question: no, I'm not referring to the [B]special action double-move hustle[/B] when I say that a hustle is faster than normal." That's why I said that. Bottom line for me, the only time I care about movement is in combat, and in combat we deal with movement actions so I'm going to stick with a uniform system (especially since I use a grid, and 7.5ft would become a pain in the ass :D) IceBear [/QUOTE]
