One could expand on the maneuvers in that fashion I suggest a good portion of the battlemaster maneuvers could use a similar expansion.

What are you talking about?..... If you said you wanted to play a wizard and someone said here is a Eldritch knight we removed the Wizard class ... you can just use a staff and make it a dex build.... that ought to be satisfying right?

I called that spending an attack and gaining a superiority die "scanning for openings". I agree it is a good benefit for the battlemaster at root. There is more to the problem than infrequency. The best you do is still sidekick calibur single target benefits. Benefiting the whole team is...

Battlemaster is as much a Warlord as an Eldritch Knight is a Wizard. (not saying it cannot be done but you have to recognize why people find it less than satisfactory given how inflexible the fighter class is currently and how innadequate the maneuvers are)

I seen a swordmage based on the Warlock structure... not too bad. Neither example is a core class a Wizard variant does count though.

Definitely looks like it now.

If one is doing table specific rules Charge and Power Attack (or bonus action attack) may become an across the board standard house rule option (for those trying to bridge the gap) . Feats or Maneuvers... ie class features... every spell is another feature for the spell caster. It is why...

I know horribly old thread has anyone homebrewed the other core classes on the Warlock Chassis? Oh and of course WOTC is breaking this class removing its interesting mechanical distinctions.

Basically a moment that One D&D is designed to encourage.

This... most definitely.

Can you back that up? I mean "most" is vague and in general this is kind of anti-teamwork. All across the board (once per turn activation seems much more sensible)

Fix it with magic items... hmmm wonder why that rarely works.

Missed that thought yes... one could have initiative buffs in passive category for some other effect too...

I think Battlemaster was a great name if it was actually better designed for the job, there is a thread on here where several of us go back and forth with ideas for expanding on both the core fighter and battlemaster to better enable the archetype yes eating other subclasses like the pdk may...

It has a fairly long fantasy precedent for Heroes including ones whose adventures were not always masses of people. The first uses of the word Warlord I heard was I think either John Carter Warlord of Mars or maybe The DC comic book hero called Warlord who visited the center of the earth. Xena...

OK I get it yes the Warlord generally speaking preserves autonomy better than a caster... For instance actually a fragile or wounded ranged character taking the charge opportunity the Warlord presents to the entire party is possibly not overly bright idea (however they might be the final chip...

Pointing out openings you might be dumb as a stump to ignore. Of course you can refuse a Clerics heal spell too I suppose.

Exactliy...Exactly....

yup I see a ton of people is it you? saying they get to decide the parties next adventure and whether the group takes up the mission from the local despot.

Yup this... a tad short of honest
