You are correct, a charge in this case and the reaction chosen by the defender would adjudicate the outcome of that situation. Thank you for pointing out the page reference too!

I can see your point regarding blowing all of a character's movement in one CA as being penalty enough. I think my concern is if, say, a PC has the initiative and uses his movement to rush past a foe to cut off escape or flank while still being able to get an attack. It seems odd to me...

Having a character that uses more than half his movement during a CA lose an action is a good idea. I found it odd that you could scamper your full movement in one CA and still attack. It seemed hurky-jerky to me.

Actually, that sounds like a very sensible solution. For things like outmaneuvering opponents did you move the figures on the board to represent the dodges and jukes or just leave them and hand waive it?

I suppose I will have to check RQ6 out then...I realize that it is the same lineage as Legend. Then again, I might be able to come up with my own system for gridded mini play with Legend. I can't help but feel that the basics are already there for it. Either way, thanks for the input!
