Combat in doesn’t just feel fast and fluid — it’s built for clarity, creativity, and consistency. We’ve overhauled the 5e action economy so you always know what you can do, what you should do, and what your options are.
No more “Is this an action or bonus action?” guesswork.
Here’s how we break it down:
Action Types in UR Combat:
- Main Actions — Do the big stuff (Strike, Cast, Command, etc.)
- Secondary Actions — Do the supporting stuff (Interact, Aim, Vault, etc.)
- Bonus Actions — Special class/feature-based boosts
- Reactive Actions — For when it’s not your turn (Opportunity Attacks, Triggers)
- Free Actions — Talk, drop something, or flex on your foes
- Legendary & Lair Actions — Reserved for bosses and wild moments
- Strike and Cast are now explicit actions
- Command lets leaders lead
- Activate is your go-to for tech and magic gear
- Combat Maneuvers — Want to shove, disarm, trip? We’ve got you covered.
Compared to 5e:
5e: Action? Bonus? Who knows.
UR: Fully defined, intuitive action categories that scale from grunts to gods.
Whether you're a tactician, a brawler, or a spell-slinger, Unbound Realms makes every turn feel intentional.
