Can I charge on nothing? I mean, Vulture Prime has that insane ability to stack charges right? So let's say you stack 4 charges. Can you charge on "nothing" and again and again so just you reach your next opponent character and keep charge/flurrying so you do not pass your turn but still "charge for free".

Does this make sense?

The answer would be No, because the use of Charge requires a close combat attack to be made. If you can't legally make a close combat attack you don't meet the necessary requirement to use/activate Charge...

CHARGE says MAY do a CLOSE...that is the problem..

Give this character a power action; halve its speed value for the action. Move this character up to its speed value and then it MAY be given a close combat action as a free action. This character ignores knock back.

BigBlueBeast1982 is incorrect.

You can use Charge and then not make the CLOSE. Nothing requires you to give that CLOSE to use Charge.

EDIT: Also, your PAC seems to be out of date as that is not the current wording for Charge. Here's the current one: https://wizkids.com/posters/reposito...0v.2018.01.pdf

You absolutely do not have to make a close attack after the movement portion of Charge. Similarly you do not need to make a ranged attack after the movement portion of Running Shot.

This is why Shape Change can thwart Charge or Running Shot *after* the character has been moved. The targeting portion of the power follows the move.

This question has been asked A LOT recently. A simple search would answer this quickly.

here are the relevant rulings (again):

Hypersonic and if attacks are required for second movement

Running shot and if you need to attack after moving (i.e., interchangeable with the Charge question)

It's come up a lot with Hawkeye and Vulture being played. I've seen players think they have to RS and shoot an object with Hawkeye if they want to move away when they are done attacking because they think they need a target and make an attack to be able to use RS. I don't remember that ever being the case that you need to have a target to be able to use RS or Charge.

The Close/Range action for those powers used to be mandatory, so if you had something you could attack, like an object or wall, you were forced to. Which always caused weird issues when somebody made a Shape Change roll. It's why C/RS were changed to "may".

So Vulture can charge nothing? Blunt answer?

Any character can Running Shot or Charge without attacking. You are not required to make the attack following movement.

Cool, good to know.

How would Vulture stack charges? Reading the ability, I see that he gets a free Charge on the condition that he KOs a character. I mean, I suppose it's possible that he just somehow gets a huge chain of KOs and keeps going, but it seems really unlikely, and definitely wouldn't happen if he Charged on nothing.

Octopus Arms to give him Flurry. If he can KO two characters in one action, he'll have two charges to use afterwards. And if he can to that again, so on. I once had 3 charges set up with him (with two attacks each, using flurry). I won that game.

I've seen 8 built up, I believe.

Vulture won that one, too.
