New Techniques

 Some custom techniques. Some were inspired by D&D 4e, others by necessity (I felt the need for a way to have move and attack without the 9 skill limitation, hence Controlled Charge and Dynamic Attack). I've also added my own dual attack house rule which comes with a technique. New Techniques Houserule: There are no (Hard) techniques. All techniques are average. Reminder: Unarmed combat skills (Brawling, Boxing and Karate) are also melee weapon skills.      Power Attack Defaults : Pre-requisite Skill -4 Pre-Requisites : Any Weapon skill. Max : Pre-requisite Skill -1 This is an attack where you sacrifice accuracy for power. Roll against Power Attack to Hit. If the attack succeeds, deal damage as usual but add +2 or +1 per die, whichever is better.   Tide of Iron (revised) This is combination of a regular weapon attack to the torso with the Shield Shove. Defaults : Combination ( weapon/torso + Shield Shove/Torso ) Weapon Skill-6+Shield ...

The main thing I wanted to do was have being an effective caster something possible on 62pt games, and not become overpowered at 250pt games. The other thing I wanted was having all the traditional (in my mind) parts of being a caster still exist, so every spell requires chanting, hand movements and so on. https://enragedeggplant.blogspot.com/2023/09/introduction-to-wizardry.html https://greyson.conlang.org/2020/04/08/modular-powers-a-new-flexible-powers-magic-system-for-gurps/ https://noschoolgrognard.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html Houserules For certain spells that are clearly weaker than their price indicates, (GM choice) after reaching the -80% max limitation, apply the remaining limitation on top. For example. 50pts -120% =10pts due to the max 80, t...
