Image 1: correct. Although close blast is hard to describe with just one image.

Image 2: correct. Should each option say Ranged 10 Burst 2, or Ranged 8 Burst 1 etc?

Image 3: all correct but Option nine. the fifth square of the wall shares more than two sides with the wall. (above, below and to the right)

Image 4: correct only blast versions missing are Options 10 and 5, but up and down on the grid...

Image 5: correct.

Image 6: correct. You should add that the Area Burst provokes an attack of opportunity...
 

That is correct, Majushi.

Good work on these images. Any chance of an update coming soon? I'd love to have these printed out and stuck up on my DM screen somehow.
 

Agreed with above.

Also, I'd include examples of cover between the attacker and the origin square (doesn't change anything in area attacks) and cover between the origin square and the target square, and how bursts/blasts count the full distance (1-2-3) around a corner (not 1-2, can't take the diagonal) [see also the horribly confusing example in the PHB] for cases when the square would be affected except for the corner.
 


I have updated the images. I need your feedbacks, thanks!

When they be updated, if anybody need these images to use them in your rpg session, just send me an email with the keyword "Attack Types Images" and I could send you as soon as possible.

But, I'm going to put the images in a pdf where you can download in archiroleros.com in a week more or less...

Thanks again!

Nitpick time: spelled "within" wrong on image 3 in the top left.

Also, something to look up: can you turn a close blast so that you are in the affected area? Say you have resist fire 15, and want to include yourself in your Burning Hands spell. Can you pick the start square to be on your left, but send the blast to the right, including you in it? If so, that would really clutter up your close blast page...

no, you cannot. The origin square is a square in your space, the blast must be adjacent to the origin square, but does not include the origin square.

hmm..maybe if you were large or larger.
