Mounted Combat (not feat) and action while mount act.


Rules Questions


can i act while my mount are moving?, for example, my mount is a griffon and I've ordered move to a foe, while moving can the rider take a other move action like as get a feat with barroom brawler or put poison in her sword.

something else, can i ready a action or act in middle of mount move or double move (mount move->rider's standard action->mount move)?

sorry for my english and thanks in advance for the answers.


Yes to the first.

No to ready part of the second. "The ready action lets you prepare to take an action later, after your turn is over but before your next one has begun."

your mound will be moving during your turn, so it doesn't work for a readied action.

No to the mount move - act - move. Also. It requires a bit of analysis, but basically you only get a single attack if your mount makes a move action on their turn. It doesn't give any option for making an attack if your mount takes a double move on their turn. While it doesn't specifically forbid it, not having the option is telling, especially when the ranged mounted combat specifically calls out what happens with both a single and double move action.


thanks for u help Dave.
