Try as I might, I couldn't find underwater combat rules in the core rulebooks. Are there underwater combat rules for DnD 3e?
Here was the situation: everyone had a breath water potion. Everyone decided to move along the bottom of a underwater temple (about 10 feet underwater), and were attacked by 3 massive Skum with underwater operating crossbows. I eventually ruled that movement was halved, and all DEX based skills were at -4, and so was AC, Attacks and Damage. The Skum operated with no penalties.
Anyway, let me know if that sounds good or what the actual rules are.
Thanks, Zoombaba
