[QUOTE="SWAT, post: 1548744, member: 2751"] I'm trying to expand Table 7-4 of the PHB (3.5) to include the very high damage caused by high-tech weapons, but even with the similar tables in the DMG, I'm uncertain of what to do at very high damage values, especially for large weapons. Below is what I have right now. I apologize for the less-than-perfect columns. I'm sure there's a way to make them straight but I have no idea how. Do the values look right? Do large weapons end up doing to much damage? Is there anything else you would change? Thanks. [CODE] Medium Small Tiny Large 1d2 1 - 1d3 1d3 1d2 1 1d4 1d4 1d3 1d2 1d6 1d6 1d4 1d3 1d8 1d8 1d6 1d4 2d6 1d10 1d8 1d6 2d8 1d12 1d10 1d8 3d6 2d4 1d6 1d4 2d6 2d6 1d10 1d8 3d6 2d8 2d6 1d10 3d8 2d10 2d8 2d6 4d8 2d12 2d10 2d8 6d6 3d4 1d10 1d8 3d6 3d6 2d6 1d10 4d6 3d8 3d6 2d6 4d8 3d10 3d8 3d6 6d8 3d12 3d10 3d8 9d6 4d4 2d6 2d4 4d6 4d6 2d10 2d8 6d6 4d8 4d6 2d10 6d8 4d10 4d8 4d6 8d8 4d12 4d10 4d8 12d6 [/CODE] Edit: Table columns now nice and straight.
