Level Up (A5E) What are your common house rules?

One change I made to Exhaustion was to use the 2024 5E penalties to d20 tests and movement speed reduction, but kept the additional A5E Fatigue effects at particular levels (e.g. Cannot Sprint or Dash, changes to travel pace, HD reduction, etc.)

We played a lot of 4e back in the day, so initiative rolls can be Dec or Wis by default.

They already can. Initiative in A5E can be any check the Narrator calls for. So this is not a house rule I’m afraid—it’s the actual rule.

I can appreciate that, you’re definitely correct.
For our group you can roll Dexterity or wisdom as a default (no narrator intervention required) as long as the narrator hasn’t called for another stat. Probably not much of a house rule in any case
