(but thank God the combat actions/reactions rules are now VERY simple)- Stealth definitely needs to be tested as a whole, it's easier than before tho not completely different- Ready (big change here!!) not usable to interrupt someone else's action BUT this is organic with how spellcasting interruption works (also big change!!)- did I overlook something or Nat20 is an auto-crit but not an auto-hit at this stage? critical hits now feels more like a "safe event" rather than a potential disappointment, but at the same time there is no chance for over-the-top result, so the "feeling" of this at the gaming table should be checked in practice- spells and ranged attacks in melee not at all dangerous per se, just inconvenient- dying/healing rules are not yet fully clear to me, they seem to make death less common than in 3ed- cantrips at will may give too much "high-magic" flavor by defaultOverall there is little in these draft rules that doesn't feel interesting to try out! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
