Can you crawl or roll on the floor during combat? All I see are rules on getting up from prone, nothing about moving while prone. If I missed it, could someone direct me to the page. Thanks.

You can crawl 5ft as a move action that provokes an AoO (PHB pg142). There is a skill trick in CS that lets you Tumble while crawling.

Here (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/actionsInCombat.htm#moveActions) you go. It'll also be in the Combat chapter of the PHB, under Move Actions.

Thanks guys, not the first time I've missed stuff in the books.

Don't sweat it. We all miss things from time to time - no one can possibly remember every last rule, or even that the rule exists.

Interesting, because the RotG already said there is no reason you can't Tumble while crawling, without tricks or anything. The given DC is 20 (although that may or may not include the -10 you have to take to move your full speed, which is 5ft). Anyways, I just call it DC15 with a -10 mod.

I was hoping they might put a 'Normal' entry in the skill trick but no.
