Message: <blockquote data-quote="MrMyth" data-source="post: 5179035" data-attributes="member: 61155">Prior to errata, I found it worked very clearly, since you just replaced the requirement to move to the nearest square with the requirement to move to any adjacent square.  Charge: "Movement Requirements: You must move at least 2 squares from your starting position, and you must move directly to the nearest square from which you can attack the enemy."  With Roundabout Charge: "Movement Requirements: You must move at least 2 squares from your starting position, moving to any square adjacent to the target from which you can attack it."  The new charge rules are, unfortunately, a bit harder to so easily swap the feat's effect in. But still, I'd see it as follows:  Charge: "The creature moves up to its speed toward the target. Each square of movement must bring the creature closer to the target, and the creature must end the move at least 2 squares away from its start-ing position." With Roundabout Charge: "The creature moves up to its speed toward the target. The creature must end its movement adjacent to the target in a square from which the creature can attack it, and the creature must end the move at least 2 squares away from its start-ing position." So again, same principle: Roundabout charge alters the standard movement requirement of the power. It isn't as clear how it works with the new charge rules, but this seems the only reasonable interpretation - if the other limitations remained, the feat would do nothing at all. </blockquote>
