The Forge Burns Bright!

Welcome back to 5th Reforged! Just like its predecessor (find it here), this supplement contains a number of alternative rules, new system additions, and new character options. As always, the goal of this project is to help D&D play to its strengths as a game of heroic adventure, power fantasy, and having fun with your friends, and to slowly help it move past some of the mechanical baggage it's picked up through its many iterations.

This is our second trip into the Reforging chamber, and inside you will find a great number of fantastical machines of death and mayhem. Stage Two gives you the Artificer class's Tier progression chart and unique casting rules can be found herein, as well as the following (and more):

• New and deadly weapons- firearms and grenades, oh my!
• New ammunition rules that turn ammo into a valuable resource instead of an annoying chore.
• New rules for ranged weapon styles like the melee styles found in Stage One.
• New Feats.
• Alternative initiative, armor, and damage systems.
• A new crafting system that doesn't do everything in its power to keep you from using it like the one in the core rules.
• Powerful "ultimate abilities" for each class called Decisive Actions which can be chained together into show-stopping combos.

All of the new rules can be used piecemeal - choose which you want to use a la carte and leave the rest behind. Dig deeper into the Forge's bounty and spread the wealth to your tablemates.

The future of 5th Reforged is bright. The next step is Stage Three. Please look forward to it!
