Louder than words

July 21, 2008

Here is the companion the previous handout. This one details actions during combat. From coup de grace to equiping a shield, all designed to prevent the need to flip through the PHB again and again.

Included are two actions not found in the 4e PHB: Disarm and trip. They were designed along the lines of the bull rush action, and complement it well. Where bull rush is a simple strength vs. fortitude, disarm is a dexterity vs. reflex, and trip is in the middle, allowing either attack type. Do note that like bull rush, neither have the Weapon keyword, and therefore you do not add any modifiers from your weapon to the attack.
