Tides of War: Mounted Charging Feats

Artwork: The artwork within this PDF is certainly inspired, featuring a pleasant array of different images with one on each relevant page (that is excluding the Open Game License page). The only problem I had here was that the cover image certainly did not fit with the style of the other pieces of art. There was a dissonance but it was not too distracting. Other than that, there was one (beautiful) image of a warrior wielding a two-handed sword… but did not seem to be mounted, breaking away from the theme of the PDF. (8/10)

Crunch: Now this is what potential buyers are likely most interested in. Is the content worth the cover price? Well dear buyer, I can most certainly say that the eight total feats within this PDF are indeed flavorful and provide an incentive to substitute the lance as a primary mounted weapon. The feats allow for options with axes, flails, hammers, and heavy blades which opens up a plethora of new options. I can honestly say that I was surprised with the variety of options here. I was a bit wary at first, expecting at least one option very similar to Spirited Charge and was pleasantly surprised that this was not the case.

Each weapon category is split into two separate feats, creating four total small feat trees of sorts. The first feat in each tree allows for different options while making a mounted charge with specific weapon categories (such as making bull rush or trip attempts on a successful hit, or dealing bleed damage, or even sickening your foe). The second feat in the tree is an enhancement of the first, and can be gained at BAB +10. This allows for this PDF to remain relevant at both low levels and high levels. Excellent and flavorful. (9/10)

Formatting: What is there to be said about this? Other than word choices I personally do not see as ideal for the fluff of each feat, the PDF is fine. Images are not in the way, the two columns makes for an easy read. It is a shame though, that the feats are not exactly in alphabetical order, but this is due to the feats being listed by type, so this is a nitpick. (9/10)

Overall: 8.6 Rounds up to a 9/10. This was certainly a good product and as someone who was looking to start up a Cavalier, I am definitely looking forward to using a few of these options.
