Dungeons and Dragons: Ref 6, Complete Fighter Manual

This is definitely the best all around complete handbook. Well what did I like most about the handbook? It think that would have to be the new combat rules. There is a lot of stuff here! Clear rules for parrying, called shots, shield punches, great new info on punching, wrestling, and martial arts (and specialization in each), insights into hit locations, effects of damage on armor (it doesn't last for ever you know), tournaments (including jousting), combat tactics, and mounted combat. And my favorite, new info on weapon proficiencies. This includes style specialations (two weapon, two hander, weapon and shield, single weapon) which justs rocks and broad groups and tight groups (allows someone to be proficent with like weapons; hey I can use a long bow why can't I use a short bow or a composite long bow.)Well don't you think that's enough reason to buy the book? If you don't, I will also mention that it has new kits, new info on proficiencies, roleplaying tips, and new types of armor and weapons. The kits are pretty cool (cavalier and beserkers are awesome), and the information on the proficiencies armorer, weaponsmithing, and bowyer/fletcher eliminate the need for lots of house rules that you will definitely forget or lose.BUY this book; it's worth it.

This book was a much needed help in my setting , left and right I had fighter pc's that wanted to broaden their horizons a little and add destinction to their characters. Well now I have that resource at my desposal and I am quite pleased with my purchase. I really liked the Samarui Kit and the list and explanation of several types of Japaneese weapons. I am most pleased.

The Fighter's Handbook is the perfect accessory if you want to be able to play such types of fighters as barbarians, gladiators,Outlaws and Samurais. It also has more combat rules for called shots, specializations, hand to hand combat and more combat maneuvers.

This is a Great book it covers all of the basics of a fighter and more! It has alot of useful kits,items,and sugestions. It is a must read for all fighters and DMs. I rank it as one of the best PlayersHandbookSupplements.
