WotC's Andy Collins posts in this thread (seventh post down) that the full-attack option has been removed from 4th Edition. He also briefly discusses the designers' goals to create more mobile combats. Removing this option reduces the "shall I stand here and fight or move?" choice prevalent in 3E combats; added to that, of course, is the previous info that Attacks of Opportunity have been changed (see Chris Perkins: "we've made attacks of opportunity dirt-simple by reducing the number of things that provoke AoOs"), presumably with the same intent -- "we're designing the game to encourage, even mandate movement from one place to another. More powers that reward movement, more short-range teleportation/flight, more powers that involuntarily move enemies...these all get us away from the static fights that 3E encouraged."
Humm
The first thing I don’t like about 4e…. no full attack option?
Well, it’s not that I don't like it.... more like I don't know how to feel about it...
Just doesn’t feel "right”… can someone help me here?
In Star Wars the reason why they did it was to help encourage combat at range... but in D&D?
