Overrun?


Rules Questions


If target of overrun choses to avoid it still gets attack of opportunity against initiator of overrun? I guess yes, just making sure i didn't missed anything.


Yes, the target does get an attack of opportunity even it chooses to avoid.


I have a question about overrun too:

I am adjacent to a creature I want to overrun. I make a combat maneuver roll (but first the creature gets an AoO.) I succeed in my combat maneuver. I place my character

1) in the same space as the creature.

2) in the space just beyond the creature.


If you equal or better their CMD you move through their space and stop wherever you want within your movement. That can be just behind them if you like.


Can you overrun and move to the side of the target or does it have to be a straight line?


Overrun just allows you to move through an enemies square. Normally this is not possible.

If they try to resist and fail they're knocked prone. If they succeed you can't move through their square.

All other rules for movement apply (doesn't have to be straight on account of overrun, can't move more than your move allows, can't end your movement in another creatures square, etc.)

Remember that overrun is made as part of a normal move or charge action. Except for the overrun part, the move or charge behave as normal.


Nice, thanks :)
