We Designed a NEW D&D Defense System

Grab THE ARTS OF DEFENSE for free:   / arts-of-defense-146743367   Defense in D&D is passive and boring. When an enemy attacks you, you just... wait. Roll your AC and hope for the best. No choices, no tactics, no agency. We decided to change that. In this video, we break down the problems with D&D's defense system and show you our NEW homebrew mechanics that turn defense from a passive moment into an active tactical choice. Finally, you can REACT when you're attacked, make meaningful decisions, and stay engaged even during enemy turns. ⇣ SUPPORT US ⇣    / @cantripoff   ⇣ OUR SETUP ⇣ Consider purchase from these links to directly support our work.
