[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 5439168, member: 2067"] It is not something a 4e character can do, generally speaking. Part of the reason for this is that "what a character holds in their hands" is kind of weirdly important to 4e. ;) For a simpler alternative, you might want to consult [I][URL="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/combat#TOC-Disarm"]Pathfinder[/URL][/I], actually. Their rules for combat stunts are pretty clean and intuitive, and the potential swinginess of "oh mage looses his wand, now he sucks" is relatively fine in a system that doesn't bugger about with knife-edged combat balance. D&D's combat stunt system isn't very useful if you're not looking to DEAL BUCKETS OF DAMAGE, though. ;) [/QUOTE]
