Someone who is handy with nested drop downs will doubtless give you a hand, but I would really, really recommend a chat menu . Much easier to work with. If you do want drop down queries, you can look at Scott C's Drop Down Nester , a spreadsheet that does auto replacement on macros like this.
Thanks Keith! I tried building it as a chat menu and could use a little help getting across the finish line. This is what I have: /w gm &{template:5e-shaped} {{title=Combat Tactics}} {{text_big=[Debuff the Enemy](#DebufftheEnemy ) | [Get Away](#GetAway ) | [Take Cover](#TakeCover ) }} It is showing up like this: I even tried replacing # with  !
# and no luck.

That should be /w gm &{template:5e-shaped} {{title=Combat Tactics}} {{text_big=[Debuff the Enemy]( !
# DebufftheEnemy) | [Get Away]( !
# GetAway) | [Take Cover]( !
# TakeCover) }} Note the lack of spaces before the close bracket: (!
#GetAway) not (!
#GetAway ) If that's not working, there may be an issue with either the rolltemplate syntax, or the macro name. Try just entering this in chat [Debuff the Enemy]( !
# DebufftheEnemy) You should see a button, and clicking it should work. If that's okay, you need to look at the rolltemplate (which I'm not familiar with). But you can test using the default rolltemplate, something like /w gm &{template:default} {{name=Combat Tactics}} {{=[Debuff the Enemy]( !
# DebufftheEnemy) | [Get Away]( !
# GetAway) | [Take Cover]( !
# TakeCover) }}
