Grappler's Handbook

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Update: Grappler's Handbook is now Expanded! See details in the description below.

UPDATE: Fantasy Grounds version now available! click here

The Grappler's Handbook has been largely re-written, and given a fresh look from the original to serve as more of a guide for how to use and expand grappling in fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons.

This handbook will give DMs and players many options and ideas to choose from when it comes to using grappling, without complicating or slowing down combat.

You can now add realistic effects and conditions from grappling into your games while using the already existing combat mechanics in fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons.

Inside you will find:

Detailed information on how to use the Grappler's Handbook, how to implement and effectively use grappling in your campaign. Including the use of weapons or implements with grappling.

Information on using a "grappling" skill; why, and how this option could be used.

Details on the different grappling positions and how they can be used. Standing and prone. This includes high quality commisioned artwork depicting the various positions.

Descriptions of how to use particular techniques such as chokes and locks. Also, how to inflict lingering injuries with these techniques.

Optional mechanics that can be added to increase the immersion.

24 unique grappling techniques from the original handbook plus bonus techniques for use with weapons/implements.

3 new weapons for fifth edition, including all of the stats so they can be used with or without grappling.

NPCs and monsters. This new addition will give you examples of how to use these techniques in your creature's stat blocks. This includes new NPCs based on popular sub-classes on DMsguild and a new CR 8 monster that will scare your players into submission.

One more thing you ask? How about an article written to give you the tools needed to run a fun and exciting encounter for a grappling tournament? Yes, this article includes an encounter that you can use at your table and will help you better understand how you can make grappling more exciting.

If I develop a class based on grappling, would you mind if I drew inspiration from this handbook and credited you If I published it?

I would absolutely love to see a new class that made use of the material here. Please let me know when you publish, I'll be the first to get a copy! And if you want any input or suggestions I'd be happy to help.

Hey I finally got around to making that class, if you'd be willing to take a look at it before I attempt to publish it here (also want to make sure you're cool with how your material is presented), I'd love to get some feedback/permissions!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
