4e: Split Movement Feat

Oct 29, 2008 12:53:12 Similar to fly-by attack, I think a feat that allowed you to split your total movement to occur before and after an interrupting action would be pretty decent. Move - Attack - Finish Move (similar to Spring Attack in 3e).

If created, I think it should be restricted to make it more balanced.

Possible limitations:
Must move full distance during turn.
May be used once per encounter.
Must move equal distances before and after interrupting turn.
Can only move up to half distance before and after interrupting turn.
Any suggestions on how to improve this?

Admittedly, that's how we play, but I'm pretty sure it's just a House Rule for most of us that you must seperate your actions. ;)

Try looking up Attacks on the Run.
