Variable Saves For Flail

The What and Why

Did you read through the Flail rulebook and find yourself thinking, “why d20 for saves, but d6 for combat?”. Were you hoping for a system of variable outcomes like modern, narrative-focused RPGs? Do you like to roll a lot of dice?

Well then you found the perfect mod to add to your games of Flail. Print this out and tape it onto page 50.

Are you wondering what the heck I'm talking about? Are you looking for your next favorite OSR style Roleplaying Game? Then you need to check out the new game Flail by Games Omnivorous. 

No AI was used in any part of the creation of this project. You can use this in your own home games of Flail, home-brew modules and adventures, and Flail-related products. You can even modify and tweak it for your own original game design, have fun; but if you use AI in any part of those activities, frankly, you lose my blessing and I revoke permission for use.
