As a [[SRD:Full-Round Actions|full-round action]], a creature with this special attack can move up to twice its speed and literally run over any opponents at least one [[SRD:Size Category|size category]] smaller than itself. The creature merely has to move over the opponents in its path; any creature whose space is completely covered by the trampling creature’s space is subject to the trample attack. If a target’s space is larger than 5 feet, it is only considered trampled if the trampling creature moves over all the squares it occupies. If the trampling creature moves over only some of a target’s space, the target can make an [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]] against the trampling creature at a –4 penalty. A trampling creature that accidentally ends its movement in an illegal space returns to the last legal position it occupied, or the closest legal position, if there’s a legal position that’s closer.
