[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 694898, member: 9026"] [B] OK... I'll accept that b/c your the DM and the DM's word is law (Plus it don't really matter much right now.) BUT I would like to ask a few questions: When did rounds become 3 seconds long? I thought they were 6. Aren't warhorses bred for battle? When did you say the horse was kicking? Doesn't dropping something take like less than a second? There are no PHB rulings of Medium Armour affecting the rate you can drawing weapons, have you made some? Alex has quick draw, which is made specifically for drawing things quickly, did you change that too? Does he Mounted Combat feat still allow me to make a ride check to negate a hit against my steed or does the armour interfere with that, too? If the armour does interfere with drawing weapons and making ride checks (According to PHB it doesn't but I don't know if you've changed that), then when we get to the next town can I exchange my Breastplate for Chain Shirt? You can see how I was confused.. My logic AND the rules/Information that I had access to at the time told me it was possible. As I cannot read minds, I know not what rulings you've changed or instituted until you post them. Once you've posted it I'll keep it in mind for the future. Also I'ld like to add that In My Opinion the "If normal people can't do it in real life your character can't do it" attitude is the exact opposite of the concept of D&D. Our characters aren't us, they aren't normal, they aren't from the 21st century, they HAVE trained specifically to do things that 'normal' people wouldn't have a clue how to do, especially in this day and age. But as I said above, that's just my opinion, so don't get mad about it, anyone. *sigh* ok, I'll shut up now. IC: Alexander grunts as his leg catches in the stirup as he tries to get off his horse, then again as his bow gets stuck as he tries to draw it, and when he finally does let fly, groans in frustration upon seeing that he barely nicked his target. "Well that was graceful of me.." He looks around, seeing the people advancing on Arcanra. (How far away from the camp is Alex?) If he's within range he'll charge at them, droppnig his bow and drawing his sword. If he's not within 40' of them, he'll continue firing at whichever ones aren't in melee with his companion(s) if possible. (How bad off is my horse? Is he bucking, trying to run, laying down in pain, what?) If his horse will survive on its own, he'll move forward methodically as he fires (20' move then fire), If his horse is having troubles or anything he'll stay near it in the hopes of keeping it calm ("Shh.. there there, boy." *Twang* "We'll have you fixed up in.." *Twang* "..no time, buddy."[/b] [/QUOTE]
