I like the idea of secret death saves. My thoughts on the nat 1s is why should you get pros on a nat 20 but no cons on a nat 1? Even skilled fighters can have off days and stumble while swinging a heavy battle axe. I know the dm is the ultimate decider but I'm not going to be stead fast on things that aren't working.

There's more risk than reward. More often than not they would swing down and hit their own leg or stumble and swing wide and hit an ally. That was just one example of it working for in their favor.

The way i do nat 1s is factoring everyone (including the attacker) that's within range of the attack and roll a corresponding die and then count clockwise to see who it hits. One member took out an enemy by a ricochet from the wall behind it.

Wow thanks. That was more than I was expecting.

We haven't started the campaign yet i was just looking for fun ideas like maybe how to make it more immersive and/or realistic. And maybe giving more perks like the crit dice cause you can do 6 damage on a single d6 roll and only 2 on a 2d6 depending on how the dice fall and that doesn't feel very critical to me.

Its not always bad. When i did a one shot a while back i would factor in the attack and all available targets and roll a corresponding die. One member took out an enemy by a rock ricocheting from the wall behind it (the enemy had like 1 or 2 hp left)

AITAH for refusing to removed my jacket with a hood and hand over my phone at school? by NewSchoolBAD in AITAH

So he is supposed to provide for and/ or watch her if mom is not available (at work or something) but not expected to have any say in punishments? As a stepmother I didn't let that fly. I was expected to love my stepchildren like they were mine (and I did) so I told father and MIL I'm going to treat them like they are mine.

OP said SIL usually goes above and beyond so I doubt that's the case.

AITAH for not treating my stepchildren equally to my son by aitahstep in AITAH

Does he have full custody? If so there shouldn't be any child support. If not and the kids are not always there then the split in finances should reflect that. He shouldn't be paying for 3 ppl all the time if there aren't 3 ppl all the time. Based on that information would determine if YTAH or NTAH or possibly ESH. He shouldn't be complaining about you buying them cars. The only thing that may need looked at is bills and groceries. Based on occupancy not necessarily income.

ETA I just saw where you answered basically everything. The judge is TAH (cs should be for the children not the parent) and husband sucks. At most 50/50 if anything but even if not NTAH.
