[QUOTE="DMZ2112, post: 7488225, member: 78752"] Eric, I doubt Raunalyn is still monitoring this thread three years on -- you might want to try a private message, if the information about his Knight of the Crown subclass build he provided on page one of this thread is insufficient. You are of course entitled to your opinion, but I'm pleased to report that Dragons of Menace, my 5th Edition Dragonlance campaign, just entered its fifth consecutive year: - Weekly sessions - Eight players - 100% player retention since Dec 2014 - Based in Maelgoth, Solamnia - Overlapping the Solamnic campaign of the War of the Lance I haven't heard the word "hokey" once, and the two encounters my PCs have had with the Heroes of the Lance have been well received by those few of my players who have read the novels. My players cleaved fairly close to the (frankly absurdly restrictive) 1987 rules for the setting, despite being unaware of them, so I didn't have a lot of justification to do. We do have a ranger, and I'm not sure why you think they shouldn't exist -- they are described in [I]Dragonlance Adventures[/I] more or less as 'see PHB.' They /did/ save Sturm with Revivify, but despite the doomsayers' warnings, D&D seems to have survived, if Twitch.tv is any evidence. I have to say that it always surprises me when people hold up the Age of Mortals while criticizing the character-driven nature of the War of the Lance, as though every major novel written in the setting since Summer Flame hasn't been entirely about Mary Sue. I mean Mina. Sorry. :) [/QUOTE]
