They do have 24 hour shifts and a somewhat unpredictable schedule.

It's a bit of karma on my side, because Ysariel had the same issue with me. :) I even did the same thing if posting more often in other threads, which required less brainpower.

I'll take their turn tonight if it comes down to it.

Just a severe case of "Oh, I'll get to that later..." and "later" never materializing.

Charging in this game still throws me, as I've been so used to it being a +2 bonus (-2 AC) in Pathfinder. Not sure which one makes more sense realistically.

That's how it worked in 2e as well. Some people used it as a poor man's version of All Out Attack as a result. In 3e, the main benefit is the extra Move action, particularly handy when Dazed.

Hey,in the AGE system you get +2 to attack,but lose 1 action.So it's only fair.You want "Realistic",go to D20 Modern.It gives you a +5 to Damage when you charge but -5 to attack...

A Charge Action is something you perform with your Standard Action during your turn. You move your standard speed (30' by default) and then you can perform any Close Range attack you have. This gives you a -2 penalty to the "to hit" roll and does not give you any bonus to the Resistance DC. But since you normally cannot move as part of the same action you use to attack, this is a nice bonus.


Hero SRD wrote:CHARGE STANDARD ACTION
You rush forward to attack. You move your speed rank in a mode of movement available to you in a relatively straight line towards your target. At the end of your movement, you perform a close attack against your opponent with a –2 circumstance penalty to the attack check.

You can combine a charge action with a move action, allowing you to move up to twice your speed (your speed rank as a move action, then your speed rank again when you charge).

*Nod* It still makes sense either way, it's just how I imagine the attack out of habit. I combined this charge with AOA as a result of the penalty... Effectively mimicking that other version now that I think on it. :lol:

So what's plan here? Do we want to wait for BG or skip this turn and come back to her?

Talking is always a free action if people want to stay involved even as combat is wrapping up. :) Voice talking to Evelyn over a loudspeaker? Is that good, bad? Something where you just kind of expect that with her?
