[QUOTE="BSF, post: 2106425, member: 13098"] 1) Quite true. You only get multiple attacks if you use a full-attack action. Any move action brings you down to a single attack. That goes for iterative attacks, two-weapon fighters, or things like rapid shot. 2) I see this as more a campaign style issue. For me, I would have possibly ruled it as follows: Fighter moves and wants to turn over desk. Guesstimate the weight of the desk and have fighter make a str check with a SWAG DC setting. I might consider a to-hit roll, or just arbitrarily give it a Ref save for the necromancer. Generally speaking, standard actions are much more valuable than move actions. Primarily because you can do any move action with a standard action if you need more than one move action. But I wouldn't count turning over a desk as a move action because it is a lot more involved. Well, OK if the gnome's desk was like a little kids play desk and the fighter was a big strong guy, I might allow moving the desk as a move action with a str check. But not turning it over on the NPC. That is definitely a standard action. The difference here is moving the desk out of the way, such as shoving it aside, as oppossed to pushing it on top of somebody, which is like an attack. [/QUOTE]
