Hey everybody. I was DMing last night and I made a call that didn't sit well with one of my players. Sorry if this has already been posted but I couldn't find it in my search of the message boards.
Anyway, when one of my players moved through an ally square I counted each movement through friendly squares as double movement. I know the CRB says this:
"You can move through a square occupied by a friendly character, unless you are charging. When you move through a square occupied by a friendly character, that character doesn't provide you with cover."
However it doesn't say anything to the about my call. When searching the message boards I also found a bunch on squeezing and can't find that anywhere.
So my question is, is there anything to support my call or have I just been playing with a silly house rule my whole life?
Silly house rule, unfortunately. Double movement is only for moving through enemy squares. This part of the rules is covered under the Acrobatics skill.
There is no penalty for moving through friendlies.
In our group we say it takes double move, because it's an occupied square we consider it to be difficult terrain.
