D&D 5E (2014) A Simple Flanking Rule, What Do You think?

[dave2008]

I think you will bw interested in this, this, and this then, and perhaps also this.

Thank you - I will check them out. I'm pretty sure I already have Martial Exploits in my chart actually.

Do you like the rule and, if not, what rule do you use instead and why is it preferable?

I think that the game's design currently only intends flanking to be an advantage to those who have specifically learned techniques to take advantage of it (say, in a fighting style, or sneak attack power).
