For the revised rules, it says magic can be cast in place of Missile or Melee. Can the player then choose when to cast his spell? Or has this been errata'd to...

For magic in combat, the section on Using Magic (Players Manual, p 29) makes it clear that it takes one full battle round to cast a magical effect and that the...

Gotcha. The section I was referring to was p. 20, the Sequence of Action. It doesn't say when magic is cast, and I think that would be the most obvious place...

Lyzi, That is extremely helpful. I also think the slowest Initiative would declare their action before the faster Initiative during the Decision phase, as you...

One other note, base on your example. You can't change an action after it's declared, so the player who wants to charge the NPC instead of the ogre would lose...

Spears striking first: well, this was the case in the original (ie, non-revised) rules, in which weapon length had a major impact on attack sequence; this was...
