[QUOTE="(Psi)SeveredHead, post: 3253618, member: 1165"] You can recharge as a swift action any time you can get a full attack, too, not just a charge. I was comparing just core rules. The vast amount of non-core supplements makes balance arguments difficult. Not even longbows? That wasn't something I noticed. Is there any reason you can't use a throwing axe?
