I know my players will want to cleave using a deed. How do other referees handled emulating this feat?

Forgive my ignorance, but how is it used in 3.x?

Maybe use a normal attack on one creature, and everyone else around the player gets some damage depending on how succesful the deed was?

In third edition if you have the cleave feat and you kill a monster you get a free attack against a adjacent opponent

I think it is very easy to adapt the precision strike (or whatever exactly it is called, sorry... lazy right now so I didn't look up exact wording) Deed example of striking a specific point to deal additional damage (at judge's discretion) to being a "cleave" attack.

I believe the minimum success listed (a 3 on the Deed die) was 1d4 damage - you could have the attack hit the main target as normal, and damage the second target according to the Deed examples for extra damage.

That sounds good
