Apparently, there's already a Battle Royale RPG: Classroom Deathmatch

I'd build a time machine that only went back to the year nineteen-whatever-year-it-was-I-started-playing; back when D&D still meant something, and when that other thing I was fond of was how it used to be. Plan B is finding out what works, then keep doing that.

J-Biebs because of his knife fighting skills. But seriously, why would having any of them coming out be detrimental (to us, anyway)? It's not like RPGs have some sort of street cred to maintain.

Videogamey: A game, or elements withing a game, that are overtly gamist and also happen to annoy the user. This term is commonly employed by those whose vocabulary suffers from Small Reference Pools. Synonyms: boardgamey, wargamey badwrongfun; antonyms: verisimilitude, sensawunda, real roleplaying

To be precise, each creature gets one opportunity action during each other creature's turn. If you want to overrun someone, use readied actions.

Here's the rest of the Oath of Emnity text: If another effect lets you roll twice and use the higher result when making an attack roll, this power has no effect on that attack. If an effect forces you to roll twice and use the lower result when making an attack roll, this power has no effect...

I know, right? Message boards don't need crap like blogs, or video embedding, or fancy user pages, or user groups, or a wiki, or a chat room...

Magicalness is irrelevant. creatures with darkvision can't see into the cloud because it blocks line of sight. Inside the cloud, you're blind on top of that. Nothing short of blindsight or tremorsense will work.

Yeah, use a Rod of the Dragonborn instead.

You're missing the forest for the trees. The problem isn't Power of Skill, it's Righteous Brand. Allowing players to use it as a MBA is almost superfluous.
