Move during sword fight, taking nothing from room (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lunge

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'move' is the definition.
(I know that lunge is a more specific form of the action move)

'during sword fight taking nothing from room' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'from' could be 'un' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'un' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'lge' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lunge that I've seen before include "Trust forward as with sword" , "Thrust forward as in fencing" , "Charge" , "dive" , "Thrust forward as with sword" .)
