Daily Punch 11-25-14 Martial Training feat for DnD 5e

I liked the feats that gave you a splash of another class’ powers in Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition.  There are powers for the caster classes (wizard, cleric, et al).  How about some for our martial friends?  How about the fighter?

 

Martial Training

You might not be an impressive warrior, but you have learned a thing or two.  Gain the following benefits:

  • Increase your strength or dexterity by 1 to a maximum of 20.
  • Gain one fighter style (PHB page 72).

Daily Punch 10-2-14 Tower Shield for DnD Next

How about some real defense for DnD Next?

 

Tower shield

Cost: 50gp

+4 AC

40lbs

 

This shield is as tall as your average ork.  You gain a -1 penalty to all attacks while using a tower shield due to its bulk.  However, when you talk a full defense action, all enemies that are on that are attacking ahead of you may not target you as you benefit from full cover.  Enemies that attack from the sides only gain disadvantage.

Daily Punch 9-29-14 Strength Sneak Attack alternate class feature for DnD 5e

I have a rogue who want to hit hard and hit mean with none of this finesse crap.  Let’s make that happen.

 

 

Strength Sneak Attack

Some favor the shadows to strike daringly at their enemies.  You do not.  You are a brazen criminal who steps in front of your enemies and hits them as hard as you can..  You may use any weapon to perform a sneak attack, but you do not gain sneak attack when you attack while hidden.  You may still perform a sneak attack when an ally is engaged with the target of your attack.  Your sneak attack dice pool increase as normal.  This replaces the normal sneak attack abilities.
