[QUOTE="Lonely Tylenol, post: 2491618, member: 18549"] Yes, this is the "rules" forum. Here, we discuss the RAW and debate interpretations of the given rules. Yours is not an interpretation, but a house rule that deviates deliberately from the RAW. Therefore, your ruling is meaningless on this board as part of a rules debate. You could also rule that barbarians all have to wear funny hats, and it wouldn't change the rules for the rest of us, nor would we (or should we) care. A rule like that has no business being invoked in a discussion on this particular board. If you want to discuss house rules, there's a forum for it, called "house rules". Otherwise, stick to the RAW and interpretations thereof. The fact is that it is uncontroversial that [i]according to the rules[/i] barbarian rage ends only when the time limit expires, unless some other effect that specifically says it ends barbarian rage affects the barbarian while he is raging. If you can demonstrate that the barbarian rage ends when he becomes unconscious, then quote your source. Otherwise, there is no basis in the rules to take that stance, despite what you might desire to rationalize about the barbarian's physiology. [/QUOTE]
