Re: (TFT) Timing problem: Disengaging. GEVALT!

[Rick Smith <rsmith@lightspeed.ca>]

I think the HTH rules are pretty broken.  I think
you need to sit down and rewrite them.  In some
places the current rules seem to say that HTH 
happens during movement.  In others it says it
is an action, and defacto, actions happen after
movement.  So I think you will be able to find
rules that support both your positions.

There has been LOTS of discussion on this list 
about this in the past.  Many different solutions
based on how much you want to change the rules.

I believe that Erol K Bayburt (sp?) had some
good rules which he talked about in the past.

Warm regards, Rick.
