[QUOTE="IceBear, post: 503011, member: 1118"] Yeah, that's true - don't have any dwarf characters so I haven't had to deal with it (that would suck). What WotC should have done is state the the speed stat is your walking speed per round and set it to 15ft.. Then say, in combat you can move upto twice your speed in a move action. This would have everyone on the same page. I don't think this is getting heated, and I've always understood drnuncheon's position (in fact I think he very well could be right). I'm just used to doing everything with the speed statistic (ie 30ft per move action) that I consider this to be the normal speed that the move silently refers to. I even found a passage in the glossary that stated that the 30ft per move action is your normal speed. That's why I feel that this is the speed they were referring too. Unfortuately, they just seem to divide all speeds in half to determine the movement rate. Since I don't have any dwarves in medium armor, I don't have to deal with 7.5ft moves and I'll do my best not to introduce them :) I'm fine with doing 1/2 speed. Out of combat, 15ft per round and in combat 15ft per move action in combat. I'm not going to have someone sneaking moving as fast as someone walking as I'm either going to be in combat mode or round mode and it'll still end up with the "walker" moving twice as fast.
