    Default Re: [Combat Action and Feat] Parry... and riposte!

    Hey, it must be the beginning of the month for we have another Opposed Roll Parry System! (Joking, but your suspicion is correct, this does seem to come up once every two months). Previous attempts:

    Skjaldbakka's Parrying System
    Talanic & Erk's Interception System
    Tough Tonka's D20 Parrying System
    Elliott20's Parrying System
    Magic8Ball's Parrying Feats
    Munchy's Parrying Fighter Feats
    Senir's Parry Skill
    Matthew's Active Defence

    ...and those are just the ones I know of. Anyway, do consider giving some of these a read, as they are full of helpful information and advice.

    For the record, I have never seen this in a Wizards Book, with one exception. The Wall of Blades Manoeuvre from Tome of Battle. This was around in 2e, though

    It is a joyful thing indeed to hold intimate converse with a man after one’s own heart, chatting without reserve about things of interest or the fleeting topics of the world; but such, alas, are few and far between.
