Player tactic dice idea

#1

I was listening to a podcast earlier, Dungeon Master’s Toolkit | WorldBuilding - BBEG Twilight Mistress on Podbean , and he was talking about creating a BBEG that uses mind control tactics and such instead of direct combat. I thought of how tactics dice could be pretty cool for that idea if we could assign them to players too. Either that, or come up with a set of “generic” tactics that characters under mind control would perform?

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Could be cool. Maybe have the mind control follow the same pattern as monster tactics.

1: movement
2-5: standard attack
6: AOE attack
