[QUOTE="Sadrik, post: 3111009, member: 14506"] With the goal of this is not to alter anything and just port this system into d&d core. But if asked how I would do it in my game... I think I will keep it the same but limit it to 5 like combat expertise... Yes, but characters recover 1 "stun" every minute so he will eventually be awake and disabled still. Thats good. How about this: [CODE]Failed roll by Wounds/Stun taken 1-4 1 5-9 2 10-14 3 15-19 4 20-24 5 25-29 6 etc.[/CODE] Which brings me to --> Removing the fail by 15 and you go down unconscious and/or disabled. With having the wounds in place it doesn't seem necessary. It is basically the massive damage rule. I think it should be tied to your total wounds.
