Goggy's houserules for FEF: MoR

General Rules
Poison deals 4 damage per tick.

Every extra point in HP on character creation counts as +2 HP, for a maximum of +4 HP.

Effective Damage is x3. Crossbows specifically deal only x2 Effective Damage.

Wind Magic is no longer effective against wyverns; thunder magic is.

Sleeping units always wake up when hit or after five consecutive turns.

People who use staves/performances autoequip a weapon if they have it in their inventory and can use it.

Supports and Terrain grant Damage Reduction instead of Defence.


Existing Skills:
Stillness and Provoke no longer exist.
Savior, in addition to its other effects, gives the user +3 Aid.

New Character Skills:
-Aegis (Free): When suffering an attack from Bows, Hidden Weapons, Tomes and Dragonstones, there is a (SKL+LCK)% chance to reduce the damage dealt by half.
-Desperation (Free): When making an attack, if you are < or = 30% HP, you may make any followup attacks immediately before your opponent counterattacks.
-Dragon Ward (Free): When an adjacent ally suffers an attack, there is a (SKL+LCK)% chance, based on your stats, to reduce the damage by half.
-Pavise (Free): When suffering an attack from Swords, Lances, Axes and Monsters, there is a (SKL+LCK)% chance to reduce the damage by half.
-Rend Heaven (Free): During an attack, you have a (SKL+LCK)% chance to deal damage equal to half your enemy’s STR or MAG stat based on the type of weapon you are wielding. (lf using a physical weapon, calculate with enemy’s Strength. If using a magical weapon, calculate using the enemy’s Magic. Weapons capable of both use the stat that targets the same defensive stat as they do.)
-Trailblazer (Free): Penalties for moving into forest, desert, deep snow, and hills tiles are reduced by 1. No ill effects from Weather are suffered as well.
-Vengeance (Free) – During an attack, you have a (SKL+LCK)% chance to add half of your missing HP to your attack.

-Desperation+ (Cost): HP threshold is 50% maximum or less.
-Vantage+ (Cost): HP threshold is 50% maximum or less.
