Equipment
* Rapier and dagger combination may be used for two weapon fighting, despite the
rapier not being a light weapon
* Sling range increased to 150/600
* Short bow range increased to 100/400
* Light crossbow range increased to 100/400
* Heavy crossbow range increased to 150/600
* Crossbow, repeating added to list of simple ranged weapons; 50 gp, 1d6 piercing,
5 lb, Ammunition (range 60/240), two-handed
* Composite bow added to list of martial ranged weapons; 75 gp, 1d8 piercing, 2
lb, Ammunition (range 150/600), two-handed
* Crossbow, arbalest added to list of martial ranged weapons; 75 gp, 2d6 piercing,
25 lb, Ammunition (range 150/600), heavy, two-handed, windlass (requires an action
to load)
* Buckler (+1 AC, 2 lbs) added to list of armor; bards, rogues, and all characters
who can use regular shields are proficient with bucklers

Time and Movement

* Each combat round is 12 seconds, thus there are 5 rounds per minute, 50 rounds
per 10-minute turn, and 300 rounds per hour
 * Instead of rolling ability checks, forced marching simply inflicts 1 Fatigue
Point per hour over eight marched in a day; going without food inflicts 1 Fatigue
Point per day of
starvation, starting on the second day; going with only half water rations
inflicts Fatigue Points equal to half of an exhaustion level, also starting on the
second day; going
entirely without water inflicts an entire level of exhaustion for the first day
and two levels of exhaustion per day thereafter

* A character carrying nothing except for normal clothing has his or her movement
rate increased by 10 feet

* Maximum lift is equal to maximum carry weight; if a character is trained in

Athletics, multiply his proficiency bonus by 50 pounds and add this weight to his
maximum lift

* If a character wishes to perform a truly exceptional lift, he may make a DC 15

Strength (Athletics) check, adding 25 pounds to his maximum lift for each point by
which his roll
exceeds the DC; if he lifts and holds the weight, he need only make a single
roll for as many rounds as his endurance allows; if he wishes to lift an object
repeatedly, he must
make a new roll each time he lifts it; failure does not prevent trying again,
but it still costs fatigue and may disallow further lifts in a competition setting

* Each turn spent lifting and holding more than a character's maximum carry weight
but less than his maximum lift weight inflicts 1 Fatigue Point; each set of 10 reps
at such
weights inflicts 1 Fatigue Point as well; for exceptonal weights, each round of
lifting and holding inflicts 1 Fatigue Points and every 2 reps inflicts 1 Fatigue
Point

* The Dash action is renamed Hustle; it describes a quick but guarded walking
speed that covers as much distance as possible without sacrificing any defensive
capability

* A character can Jog as his action; this uses up all movement for the turn, and
allows movement at up to four times speed (after modifying for encumbrance); each
hour spent
jogging inflicts 1 Fatigue Point on top of any fatigue the character would
normally accrue; for example, jogging for 10 hours straight inflicts 12 Fatigue
Points, 10 for the
time spent jogging and 2 because the ninth and tenth hours also count as a hours
of forced marching

* A character can Run as his action; this uses up all movement for the turn, and
allows movement at up to six times speed (after modifying for encumbrance); each
turn spent
moving at this pace inflicts 1 Fatigue Point on the character on top of any
other fatigue damage that is being accrued

* A character can Sprint as his action; this uses up all movement for the turn,
and allows movement at up to eight times speed (after modifying for encumbrance);
each round spent
moving at this pace inflicts 1 Fatigue Point on the character on top of any
other fatigue damage that is being accrued

* A character can attempt to go beyond his normal sprinting speed; to do so, he

must make a DC 15 Strength (Athletics check); for each point by which his roll
exceeds the DC, he
may move an extra 5 feet during that round; moving at this pace inflicts 5
Fatigue Points per round on top of any other concurrent fatigue damage

* A character may jump a number of feet equal to 10 plus his Strength modifier, or
10 plus his Strength modifier plus his proficiency bonus if trained in Athletics;
this number is
increased by 5 feet if he is carrying nothing heavier than regular clothing;
additionally, a character can attempt an exceptionally long jump by making a DC 15
Athletics check;
for every 3 points by which his roll exceeds the DC, he may jump 1 foot further
than usual; these heights assume a running start of at least 10 feet before the
jump; a standing
long jump is calculated in the same manner, but the final distance after all
modifiers and rolls is halved

* A character's vertical leap is calculated in the same manner as his horizontal

jump, but the distance is divided by eight after all other modifiers have been
applied; the height
he can reach with a vertical leap is equal to the height of the leap plus 1�
times his height; for example, a 6' 8" man with a 44" vertical leap can reach a
ledge 12 feet up

Advancement
* For multiclass characters, ability score increases occur when total character
level reaches 4, 8, 12, 16, and 19 rather than at specific class levels
* Extra ability score increases still happen at the relevant level of that
individual class; for example, a multiclass rogue gets one when he or she reaches
level 10 in rogue
* Advancing in level requires training; take the level attained and divide by two,
rounding up; this is the number of weeks the training takes, at a cost of 100 sp
per week, assuming
the character has a trainer who has already attained the desired level or
higher; until training is complete, the character does not gain the benefits of the
new level; training costs
increase to 200 sp per week from 5th to 10th level, to 500 sp per week from 11th
to 17th level, and to 1000 sp per week from 18th to 20th level, and tutors become
increasingly scarce
* If a trainer cannot be found, a character may undertake self-training; the total
cost is the same as training with a tutor, but is spread out over twice as many
weeks; for example,
a character wishing to attain 10th level with a tutor must spend a total of 1000
sp and spend 10 weeks training, while one without a tutor spends the same 1000 sp
but takes 10 weeks

Sorcerer
* In addition to their use for metamagic and creating spell slots, Sorcery Points
may be used to upgrade existing spell slots; doing so costs an amount of Sorcery
Points equal to the
difference between the number of Sorcery Points needed to create a spell slot of
the upgraded level minus the number needed to create a spell slot of the current
level; for example,
in order to upgrade a 1st level spell slot to 2nd level costs 1 Sorcery Point,
whereas upgrading it to a 5th level spell slot would cost 5 Sorcery Points; doing
this is a bonus action
* Wild Magic Sorcerers automatically know the 1st level spell Nahal's reckless
dweomer; name a spell of 5th level or lower which you have prepared and roll on the
Wild Surge table; the
selected spell is only cast if the table indicates a result of "spell
functions," but all other effects of the wild surge occur regardless of the success
or failure of the sorcerer's
desired casting; the caster can exert a little control over this planned surge;
add your sorcerer level to the d100 roll on the Wild Surge table
* Use the AD&D 2nd Edition Level Variation and Wild Surge tables for wild magic,
as reproduced below:

Level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
