[QUOTE="Coredump, post: 1783233, member: 6939"] Well, I don't think you could 5' move and charge, even with refocus, could you? Heresy alert!!!!!! Okay, I *really* think DnD is a roleplaying game. I don't think it is a miniatures game, and I don't think it is Magic without cards. Now, having been an avid Magic player for a few years, I can see the similarity between 3.0 to 3.5 to XPH to etc. and Magic. But I refuse to allow it to change DnD from an RPG to something...else. I see no problem in allowing your character to 'charge' down that corridor. (hey, I warned you about the heresy) Sure, if he was 20' from the corner, no go. Or if he had to make a bunch of turns, outa luck. But come on people, he is *right there*. How many times have we seen people charge from around a corner or some other shelter. It just makes sense. If you can draw the line, it is just bent a little. ;-) If it were outside, with rolling hills, that isn't 'straight'. If on a small dias, and have to charge down 3 steps, that isn't 'straight'. But they are both reasonable. I feel this is also. The rules are meant to provide a balanced framework to play a game, it is not meant to cover every concievable situation.
