Combat

"Combat" as a topic is so broad and complex that while many of the DMG rules have been adopted without change, the combat model has been re-authored as a unified body in the CRM. That said, the standard "Overlay" approach has been provided below.

Turning Undead (p.65) md

  • Directionally correct, but does not differentiate between the types of undead, a relevant issue within the Oath-Bound setting.

Further Actions (p.66) md

  • This is a long section covering topics that address damage that is defined in the Oath-Bound system as 'non-combat damage' - which of course sounds counterintuitive.
