The "Normal" Power Source

[andarilhor]

You need to add all the Skill Encounter Powers to the list!


e.g.

Bluff (Gain Combat Advantage)
Encounter ♦ Skill (Bluff)
Standard Action
Target: One enemy that can see you
Attack: Bluff vs Insight
Hit: Gain combat advantage against the enemy until the end of your next turn.

As I said, everything can be a card, will be a card. But, skills has too much uses to be made as power cards. Same way, some racial and class features will be made in power card format, but not everything.

Some others power cards from this thought:

Combat Challenge
Combat Challenge Attack (made in 2 cards to make it easier to use)
Hunter´s Quarry
Sneak Attack
Shadow Walk
Warlock´s Curse
Misty Step
Dark One´s Blessing
Fate of the Void
Orb of Imposition
Staff of Defense
Wand of Accuracy

This would make an excellent pdf of power cards. I know I plan to do it myself. (Typing it up will help me remember the rules )

Same thing here! It is helping me to familirize with the rules and will help my players as they all are teenagers cardgamers. (my nephew and his friends).

But, I am making then in excel, instead of pdf.

Basic Attack
At-Will♦Normal, Weapon
Standard Action Melee or Ranged weapon
Target: one creature
Attack: Str vs AC (melee) or Dex vs AC (ranged)
Hit: 1W + Str mod (melee) or 1W + Dex mod (ranged)
Special: Weapons with the Heavy Thrown keyword use Str vs AC for Attack (ranged) and 1W + Str mod Damage (ranged). Weapons with the Versatile keyword gain +1 damage when wielded with 2 hands. Weapons with the High Crit keyword deal maximum damage plus an extra 1W damage. This increases to 2W at 11, and 3W at 21.

Those are exceptions... same way light blade weapons use dex to attack and damage in melee.

I added them in to make it easier for my players that sometimes use those options.

Additionally, in 4e, unless stated otherwise in a power, as per page PHB 216 sidebar, a Basic Melee Attack always uses Strength Mod. Weapons in the Light Blade weapon group do not use dex unless a power overrides.

Error of mine... but, it´s a good houserule, isn´t?

I like this idea, but having an extra 9 power cards seems like it would get a bit problematic and space consuming. What I would suggest is shorthanding anything that can be short handed, and put 3 or 4 of them on one card each, with the titles "Normal Attacks" or "Normal Movement" kind of thing. That way, players get all of the stats, and the table doesn't have another 45 cards on it.
Another idea would be to print out a sheet of these cards, and tape it to the back of your DM Screen. If the furthest players can't see the text, they would at least be able to see the headers, so they could ask a closer person "What happens when you run again?"

It can be, however, I find the rogue class, whose powers make the most use of the Light Weapon group, already have this built into it's power as an override.

Regardless, these were an excellent idea for power cards.

Don't forget Opportunity Attacks and Coup de Grace!

Don't forget Opportunity Attacks and Coup de Grace!

I choosed to not make the following actions in power card format:

- Action Points Use
Use a counter instead.

- Coup de Grace
Too situational.

- Crawl
- Stand Up
Included this rules in the "prone" condition card.

- Delay
- Ready an Action
Over Complicated to became a card.

- Escape
Included this rules in the "grab" power card.

- Opportunity Attack
Still thinking about, but is too specific.

- Squeeze
Included this rules in the "walk" power card.

- Total Defense
No necessity to became a card.

Thanks!

But this simple houserule gives the rogue (and other Dex based characteres) the possibility to make a basic attack based in Dex, including a OA.
