Tough one there trying to guess blindly. Is there a section of attacks of opportunity?
edit: if not what about focus items? We saw a bunch for bard with unique affects when used in the bard playtest but no others
Level Up (A5E) 8 days to go....

Rearing Menace - I believe you want to say "make a wisdom saving throw DC based on your intimidate check", but it never actually says to make an intimidate check.
Trample - If the creature passes their save, does it stop your movement, or do they just "move to the side" and you continue the trample?
Launched Strike - Seems a bit weak since any character capable of 3rd level manuevers probably can just move and get 2 attacks in (or maybe even 3), but I guess there are things like paladin smites that scale really well on crits..... so a smite crit is worth more than 2 attacks, so its probably alright.
Spirited Whistle - I think this is a great balance of "realism" vs "high level coolness". Effectively the horse can move a ridiculous, physics breaking distance, but the fatigue penalty at least gives some lip service to "it moved so fast it basically hurt or winded itself".
Wheeling Charge - So I am not sure how this one actually works. It kind of implies the idea is to hit 1 creature with a ton of attacks, but by the wording.... if I move 10 feet into a circle of people, I could hit everyone of them once. Or if I'm riding by a line of enemies, I can effectively hit each one of them twice as long as my final movement puts me 10 feet away from each creature I hit. Now that does seem in line with these "ultimate manuevers", but its a bit confusing.

Whoops! Whoever that was must've blocked me, so I didn't see anyone.

Page 850? How big are these books?
There's vampires and wraiths and stuff over on the A-Z Monster Preview Thread (and I suspect Z might be limited in choices too!)
Ignore the page numbers. The layout artist uses placeholders.
