### **Core Mechanics**
|
||
|
||
#### **Tactical Network (1st Level)**
|
||
|
||
You establish a mental link with your **Constructed Ally**, enabling seamless coordination. Your ally acts on your turn, taking actions based on your commands. The ally defaults to a defensive stance (Dodge) if no command is issued.
|
||
|
||
- **Range:** 30 feet
|
||
- **Commands:** Commands cost **Command Points** to execute.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
#### **Constructed Ally (1st Level)**
|
||
|
||
At 1st level, you gain a Constructed Ally, a semi-autonomous construct that serves as your companion in combat. Use the **Steel Defender** stat block as a base with the following modifications:
|
||
|
||
- **Hit Points:** Equal to 5 + five times your Overseer level.
|
||
- **Scaling:** Your Constructed Ally gains additional features and upgrades as you level up.
|
||
- **Actions:** Takes actions based on your commands, expending Command Points.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
#### **Command Points (1st Level)**
|
||
|
||
You have a pool of **Command Points** that you use to issue tactical commands to your units. This pool replenishes after a long rest.
|
||
|
||
- **Regeneration:** Restore 1d4 + Intelligence modifier Command Points during a short rest.
|
||
- **Threshold:** You cannot spend more than half your level in Command Points on a single ally's turn.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
#### **Command Maneuvers (2nd Level)**
|
||
|
||
You develop specialized tactics to enhance your units. Choose two **Command Maneuvers** from the list below.
|
||
|
||
- **Shockwave (2 CP):** Your ally slams the ground, forcing creatures in a 10-foot radius to make a Strength saving throw (DC = 8 + proficiency bonus + Intelligence modifier) or be knocked prone.
|
||
- **Intercept (1 CP):** Your ally moves to intercept an attack targeting a creature within 10 feet of it.
|
||
- **Coordinated Strike (3 CP):** All Constructed Allies attack the same target. If at least two attacks hit, deal an additional 1d10 damage.
|
||
- **Deploy Barrier (3 CP):** Construct an energy barrier that provides half cover in a 10-foot radius for one round.
|
||
|
||
#### **Overseer Archetype (3rd Level)**
|
||
|
||
Choose one specialization for your Overseer. Examples:
|
||
|
||
- **Field Commander:** Focuses on battlefield control and advanced maneuvers.
|
||
- **Tactical Mastery (3rd Level):** Gain +2 Command Points and increase your command range to 60 feet.
|
||
- **Phalanx Formation (10th Level):** Allies within 10 feet gain +1 AC.
|
||
|
||
- **Mechanist:** Enhances allies with superior upgrades and experimental tech.
|
||
- **Experimental Protocols (3rd Level):** Add a module to allies, like a flamethrower or grappling hook.
|
||
- **Modular Constructs (10th Level):** Allies can swap upgrades during a short rest.
|
||
|
||
- **Dominion Controller:** Combines magic with constructs, granting spellcasting abilities.
|
||
- **Construct Casting (6th Level):** Allies can channel your spell slots to cast cantrips or 1st-level spells.
|
||
- **Arcane Overdrive (14th Level):** Allies gain resistance to magical damage and advantage on saving throws against spells.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
#### **Efficient Directives (5th Level)**
|
||
|
||
You can issue commands more fluidly. You may use a bonus action instead of an action to issue a command.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
#### **Unit Upgrades (6th Level)**
|
||
|
||
Your allies gain significant upgrades. Choose one upgrade per ally:
|
||
|
||
- **Flight Systems:** Gain a flying speed of 30 feet.
|
||
- **Heavy Armor Plating:** Increase AC by 2.
|
||
- **Pulse Cannon:** Gain a ranged attack (30/120 feet) dealing 2d8 force damage.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
#### **Capstone: Command Perfection (20th Level)**
|
||
|
||
- **Unlimited Command:** Issue commands without expending Command Points for 1 minute (once per long rest).
|
||
- **Supreme Coordination:** When an ally scores a critical hit, all other allies gain advantage on their next attack.
