With rumor of a tactical combat option incoming in the DMG. Im wondering if DDAL will allow future optional rules like they have with Feats?

 

I've played a few AL mods where no grid was used and combat seemed lacking. Tactical combat was one of 4th Ed redeeming factors and im hoping this new optional rule improves the 5th Ed combat experience.

You will note that is already covered by the DnDAL player's guide on page 9. All the combat rules related to playing on a grid can be used (drawing oppurtunity attacks, flanking, etc...). Any other rules not in that section are not used.

 

Rules for Dungeon Masters

The variant rules for “Playing on a Grid” in the D&D

basic rules and Player’s Handbook can be used if you

and your players wish. Dungeon Masters should feel

free to use the Dungeon Masters Guide to help run

games if they so choose. However, D&D Adventurers

League play does not use any other optional or variant

rules as presented in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.
