[QUOTE="BASHMAN, post: 4116537, member: 8277"] Running is much better than in 3.5. It means that in a SINGLE MOVE ACTION you get to move an extra 2 squares. In 3.x it was like, a full round action to run-- you had to waste your whole turn on it. Double move in 3.x can still be done in 4E-- AND you can run for both those moves! In 4E, you can RUN as your move-- then CHARGE! I love that! Dwarf double moves 10- Double move run is 14-- Elf double move is 14-- Double move run is 18-- Who cares-- Elves are faster than dwarves! If the issue is "Elf running is less of a bonus than dwarf running" remember that Dwarves are "natural born sprinters" to quote Gimli. Note-- that the word "Run" is a misnomer-- because you are ALWAYS RUNNING when people are trying TO KILL YOU! The default movement should probably be called "run" and the extra fast move is "Sprint" so that people understand the difference. Dwarf walking speed when maps & miniatures are not being used at all because it is a non-combat situation-- irrelevant # of squares b/c you don't care about squares when not in combat. If you ABSOLUTELY MUST determine the walking speed, assume it is 1-2 mile/hour. Elf walking speed when maps & miniatures are not being used at all because it is a non-combat situation-- Irrelevant # of squares b/c you don't care about squares when not in combat. If you ABSOLUTELY MUST determine the walking speed, assume it is 1-2 mile/hour. [/QUOTE]
