Robertscribbler’s Homebrew Alteration to Great Weapon Master for Longsword Fighting in D&D 5e

In this 15-minute video on the Robertscribbler YouTube channel, I explore a tweak for the Great Weapon Master feat in Dungeons and Dragons 5e. Great Weapon Master is probably the most universally used feat for melee combat in 5e D&D. For this feat tweak, I add to the variety of weapons that qualify for Great Weapon Master in order to allow a greater number of historical and fantasy fighting styles in-game. Though this homebrew tweak is a minor rules change, I find it adds a great deal of flavor to games (not to be confused with my use of WOTC official rules to optimize the longsword and other 1-handed weapons).
