Combat Questions
Movement speed in combat questions. If there are participants that have 4 actions, do you divide everyone's movement up by 4 and allow only that much movement per action phase? Do you actually use this sort of tactical movement in your EP games? Do you round up or down? 4 meters or 20 meters running is easily divided by 4 action phases, but 3 complicates maters a bit. Does a character with less than 4 actions, take their complex actions during the first action phase, or can they take their actions during any of the action phases?

Well, for one, length is a continuous measure, which means that you simply move 20/3 meters per action phase... As for your third question, the combat rules say that all characters with a Speed of [i]at least[/i] 1 all act on phase 1, then all characters with a Speed of [i]at least[/i] 2 all act on phase 2, etc. This means that characters with Speed 1 take their actions during the first action phase - though of course they can chose to hold their action and take it in a latter phase.

Somebody is using bad science! Snark, facts, snark. Your body is corrupted: Cool, do more science to it. Your mind is warped: That's nice, want a cookie? What do we say to the God of Death? Not today!
