With all the stuff posted here, we should be able to piece together a workable system... I like the concentration. Range: I think 30 ft. works best, with the option of increasing it by 10 ft./feat.Why not have two ways of doing it: Concentration - the cleric holds out his symbol and makes a turn check to keep undead at bay for up to 1 rd/level; those undead who fail the check cannot enter the area of effect (say 30 ft.); undead that aren't turned still suffer a -2 penalty (like protection from evil). Or positive energy burst - the cleric deals damage (say 1d6/level) to all undead in 30 ft., and those that are reduced to 0 are destroyed. The only problem I see is why a cleric would choose the former over the latterWill save: Yes; a natural 1 means it's destroyed (though we need a system for how a really powerful cleric can destroy really weak undead...maybe the energy burst?). Knocked prone: Why? Doesn't make any sense, and the PCs would get AoOs galore. Critical failure damage: sounds good. I'd say that undead forced into the area, if they haven't already failed their save, gain a +2 bonus to the roll - I can't think of any justification beyond a balancing factor.If this is a burst effect, how can it "miss"?</blockquote>
