Template:3.5e Maneuver/doc

This template is similar to Template:Spell, but it works for martial maneuvers instead.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
name	Yes	The name of your maneuver.
discipline	Yes	The discipline your maneuver belongs to; ex: "Desert Wind".
type	Yes	Type of maneuver; one of "Boost", "Counter", "Stance", or "Strike".
desc	No	Maneuver descriptors, separated by commas; ex: "Fire, Mind-Affecting".
lvl	Yes	The maneuver's level, and only the level; ex: "1".
prereq	No	The maneuver's prerequisites, if any; ex: "Two Desert Wind maneuvers".
initiation	Yes	The type of action it takes to initiate the maneuver. You can either write out the action in full, or use short keywords instead: "swift", "immediate", "standard", and "full".
range	Yes	The maneuver's range. What you put here is going to be affected by your choice of the next parameter. Examples: "Personal", "30'".
tsea	Yes	Targeting information. Put t to get "Target", ts to get "Targets", e to get "Effect", and a to get "Area". These can be combined; te and et become "Target or Effect"; tea becomes "Target, Effect, or Area", etc.
subj	Yes	What comes after the the above tsea parameter in the maneuver description. What you put here is going to depend on what you put in tsea: an appropriate subj for Area would be "Cone"; an appropriate subj for Target would be "Five creatures".
dur	No	The duration of the maneuver, if it is not an instantaneous effect.
save	No	The maneuver's saving throw, if any. Note that if this is a maneuver that targets something else it should have this parameter, even if it is "None". The only time you should omit this is if the maneuver only affects you; for example, if it is a stance.
