What when you cannot move back?


Dragon Magazine General Discussion


Hello everybody,
again, when rules are unclear, I require your wise help. The question is relatively easy:

What happens if an attacking creature bull rushes a defending creature and the defender cannot move back (let's say has a wall behind)? In the 3.0 rules I vaguely remember that the defending creature falls prone, but I wasn't able to find anything supporting this in 3.5

The same question may be applied to the first tactical maneuver granted by the Sun School feat from the Complete Warrior.

Thank you for your cooperation

I suggest the defender becomes prone and if there is a solid surface behind him, such as a wall, I would apply non-lethal, too.
