is standing up considered an action? I would think it was a move action since it takes 3 movement to do it.

will standing up prevent you from attempting a block?

can someone who is knocked down, stand up and foul someone who is knocked down and next to them?

stand up is not an Action.
stand up can be used as part of a move action (free of MV with Jump up or for 3 MV without the skill)
stand up can be used as part of a Block action (with the jump up skill)
stand up can be used as part of a passing action and will be eating some of your movement before the pass (free of MV with Jump up or for 3 MV without the skill)
stand up can be used as part of a foul action and will be eating some of your movement before the foul (free of MV with Jump up or for 3 MV without the skill)

stand up cannot be used as part of a throw a bomb action as indicated in the rule.

Did I forget an action?... oh yes, Blitz,
stand up can be used as part of a Blitz action (free of MV with Jump up or for 3 MV without the skill).

Equally important, standing up may not be part of a block action if you do not have the jump up skill. so no standing up and blocking in most circumstances.

Absolutely. Standing up = moving (not it differs from a move action),

To summarize...standing up is like taking a move action unless you have "jump up." :wink:

Or rather, standing up is part of a move action (if that is all the player does) :)

Also important to clarify all the "Can I use wrestle then standup again" usual questions:
from the rules:
you can only stand up at the beginning of an Action

Wrestle would have been awesome if you could stand up and continue moving afterwards.
