[QUOTE="The Ghost, post: 4673247, member: 60281"] A little anecdote for you... when I was in high school I had a history teacher who stood about 5'6" and was a master in a particular martial art. One day, a fight broke out between a couple of rather large guys. As my teacher stepped in to break up the fight one of the guys took a swing at him. What I saw next amazed me as this little guy flipped this much larger guy over onto his back knocking the wind right out of him. The moral is that size and strength does not always equate to power. As to your halfling/monk problem. I have found that by using variations of the above story works well enough for me. Or better yet, allow the player to describe how he drops the giant/dragon/etc. Put the honus on him to come up with a "killing blow." If the "size thing" is that much of a problem you can also think about upping the size of halflings a little. Maybe double their weight and increase the height somewhat. [/QUOTE]
