Ok so Triple sprint is The Tunnel Runner may as a (S*) move 3x his movement rate, this may not be used as a charge action. This talent works with ALL forms of movement.

Improved Movement adds its level to your movement.

So with a 6" movement and Improved Movement at 5 will triple sprint give:

1.  (6x3)+5=23"

2.  (6+5)x3=33"

It would be choice number 2. if your begining move is 6 and you buy 5 improved move you know have a move of 11. So if you multiply that by 3 it is 33. so your second option is correct.

Your second equation is the correct formula for land movement.  The Improved Movement Talent is an increase to your base land speed and thusly effects every move action you take.  Thusly if you have Improved Movement 1 you would get an extra inch for with one move action, two for two move actions, and so forth.  Thusly with The Tunnel Runner's Triple Sprint Talent you are using what is considered to be the equivalent of three move actions of movement and thusly get three extra inches from the talent, or fifteen in terms of your Improved Movement 5 example.

Hope that helps and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong staff.  Its always good to learn the rules better,

Gimble you are both write and wrong. He does not get the equivalent of 3 move actions it is a full round(S*) action to do. Its just tripleing his movement for that moment. Its ment as a get away tactic or escaping a tunnel thats coming down on your head. His total move during a triple charge is 33 unless there some other modifier, but thats his base 6 with improved move of 5 with triple charge.

I was saying that its like getting the equivalent of three move actions in terms of movement.  I did not say you get three move actions.  Of course you have to go by the rules of the talent and use an Involved Standard to get its benefits.

Gimble the not always so clear

I understand what you are saying but im assuming hes a newer player, and the way you put it is a bit confusing to people who dont know the game well
