THe rules are not that clear about stopping your movement upon entering hindering terrain. Does it affect Charge ??? If my fig is entering hindering terrain does it sop right away or could it still be making it's attack on an adjacent fig ????

Charge is still affected by normal movement rules - but it allows an attack at the end of a move. So I would say your movement would stop as soon as you moved into hindering terrain (just like it does when you move into an adjacent position to an enemy figure) but you could still make an attack if you were close enough to an enemy fig.

Likewise, I just learned Sunday that a charging character cannot move adjacent to an enemy character and then pick-up an object - since picking up an object requires a move action and said move action ends when you are adjacent to an enemy fig.

You are 100% correct tyro...
