Warforged: Like them or loathe them?

[Drowbane]

I use Warforged in my homebrew setting. Thus, I want them in the PHB, because it will make my life slightly more convenient.

I also use Warforged in my FR and GH.

I think they're overpowered (I give them 1 pseudo-construct HD and make them ECL 2 starting)

Is that including the construct bonus HP (+20 for a M sized creature)? Cause that would probably make them even MORE powerful.

Pffft, Naruto's major abilities (Jutsu) are all much more like those of a Wizard than a Monk. He's not identical, but Wizard is basically as close as you're going to get in a single class in D&D. Which is ironic considering how hyper-fit Naruto is, Wizards being traditionally regarded as unfit, slow, old, ill, etc.

Kind of reminds me of the Wizard/Monk one of my players had in my first 3E campaign, come to think of it.

Warblade and/or Swordsage.

I like Warforged, but there's no way in hell that they should be core, as they're specific to a single campaign setting. Core races should include races and classes that you'd find in most settings. Warforged, however, assuming they even exist outside of Eberron, would be much rarer. So yeah, while in Eberron they're fine, they should be kept out of core.

A shell of wood, fibrous material and steel should be immune to fatigue, posion, disease and hunger. That also means it should not be a PC race.
