Questions about Cavalier action economy


Rules Questions


I have several questions:

1) Can someone explain how the Cavalier's actions work while mounted and charging?

2) Does the mount take a "turn" during the Cavalier's turn?

3) Can the mount attack during Ride-By-Attack or does it count as a double move action?

4) Does the Cavalier attack only once during the charge if he has a BAB of +6/+1?

5) If the Cavalier doesn't charge and doesn't use Ride-By-Attack, does the mount's movement count as a Cavalier's movement, meaning he won't be able to do a full-attack?

Thanks!


You gain your regular actions, one standard and one move. If your Mount moves, you cannot full attack, meaning you can't full attack on a charge either, but you can still attack as a standard action and use your move action for something.

Basically the mount doesn't get its own turn while mounted. The cavalier makes ride checks to direct or on his own turn.


Okay thanks.
