Distance for Overrun

[DiesALot]

Hey guys,

Can someone confirm how far back I have to be from an enemy to start an overrun?

I know with doing a charge you need to be at least 10ft from the enemy, but what about overrun? Can I be right up in their face to do it?

Obviously if I'm doing it as part of a charge I'd have to be 10ft back.

But, doing just an overrun provides better opportunities, cause I don't have to run in a straight line to do just an overrun.

I wouldn't get an attack at the end of it, but I'd get my swift (I'm also using Spiked Destroyer) so would likely result in that damage, plus a possible AoP for knocking prone.

I'm not familiar with Spiked Destroyer, but normally you can make an overrun maneuver as a standard action, like many other maneuvers.

The rules don't state a minimum distance necessary before you attempt the overrun. They do state that the attempt is made "during your move" so you might have to commit to moving some distance.

Keep in mind that falling prone does not provoke an AoO unless you have vicious stomp.

or greater overrun.

You are correct, sir.
