5 Foot Step

Hello All,

Just wondering if anyone out there has house rules for adjusting the 5 ft step based on size, or speed?

I'm considering eliminating it for small and smaller creatures, and increasing it to 10' for large, 15' for huge, and so on. This would, of course, greatly increase the combat capabilities for larger sized creatures, but why not? I just don't see why larger creatures should be limited to a 5' step.

I'm also thinking about allowing a 5' for each full 30' of movement. So a small creature with 30' mvmt would get a 5' step, a medium creature with 60' would get 10'.

The adjustments for size and speed would not stack, the creature would take the better of the two modifiers.

I'm sure this has been discussed in many groups, have any of you found a workable solution?

Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated.

I do use something like this. Tiny, fine and diminutive creatures can't take a 5 ft step. Small, medium and large take a 5 ft step. Huge, gargantuan and colossal take a 10ft step.
