Hello all

Under what conditions can a character cast a spell and make a mele attack in the same round?

well, touch spells allow you to make a single touch attack as part of the spell.

chokers get an extra standard action, as i understand it.

a weapon of speed (or haste) might allow it.

schism (psionics) would allow it, if the spell has no components.

a spell that is quickened, or is naturally a swift or immediate action, would allow it (as would powers, including using the dimension door augmented to be a move action).

hmmmm... that's about all i can think of.

There's a PrC in Miniatures Handbook that allows this. Havoc Mage, I think.
