Yeah that would work, but I think to start with my main aim is to get the supplement to a point at which it can be used in conjunction with the Core Rules with a minimum of house-ruling.dymondy2k wrote:Joe.. I was considering the shooting into combat penalty and I had a thought that fits more into your supplement since it takes size into consideration. I was thinking that if your party was engaged in melee combat with a large creature that the penalty should be reduced to a -2 (and larger to 0). But if they are attacking a creature smaller than normal the penalty would be increased to -6.
However, one thing I definitely do plan to do for the supplement is to go through the Core Rulebook and categorise each of the monsters for size - Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large, etc. - with corresponding footprints for use with floor plans (Small, Medium = 5' x 5', Large = 10' x 10', etc.). So that would help with your penalty-based system.
