    D&D 5E (2014) Warlording the fighter

    I'm going to try this one last time before the weekend gets here. I'm going to collate all the feedback and put it together this weekend, so... ...summoning Tony Vargas , Obryn , and pemerton for any feedback you care to give. Tony hasn't posted since Tuesday so I don't know if he'd seen the...

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    No, because it's irrelevant - just as irrelevant as Lemon Curry. People not wanting the Warlord is not a good reason for denying those that do. Just as WotC doesn't ask what people don't want in their polls, they only ask what they do want. So, it's irrelevant data that can only do more harm...

    D&D 5E (2014) Warlord Healing

    Where are you getting the idea that unconscious characters can't hear? They aren't consciously processing what they hear, but they are still hearing and the subconscious is incorporating it. Even some coma patients are known to have heard things. Unless they are Deafened (the condition), they...

    Did you look at what we're working on in the Warlording the fighter thread? There are links in the OP to exactly what we have so far; and we're looking for feedback on it... here and here :)

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    Duh! If the designers had included it, there'd be no need for us to pursue it...:) Not to mention, what does any of that have to do with anything? Are you trying to say that the designers opinions are so etched in stone they can't possibly change? Or are you just falling into the illogical...

    Maybe - Maybe Not. But it is serving the purpose it was intended for.

    Agreed. Of course though, that's not what you were "just saying" in the post I quoted...

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    Says you. Fortunately, you are not the lead designer of D&D. Whether you like it or not, we are going to pursue an official Warlord. If that bothers you to the point of trying to stop people from pursuing it, that says more about you than those that want a Warlord...

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    Welcome to ENWorld Polls!:) Polls here are at best, a rough estimate or highlight a general trend. With even the best formatted polls still involving a self-selecting group, their results are all suspect. Usually, they're simply entertainment; not to be taken too seriously. And Thank You for...

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    It didn't; but your question shows that you haven't followed the whole thread. This line of discussion started with talk of a non-magical game; no healing spells, no healing potions...no magic. In a no-magic game, without the presence of a class with mundane healing - healing they can use on...

    Somebody who wants a Warlord they can play in Adventurers League...

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    Whether narrow or not, it's a legitimate desire. One that can only be fixed with an Official version. My Magic 8-Ball said: "Better not tell you now.":p

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    When your Feats have to be spent on a specific feat in order to make the game playable, rather than being able to use your feats to simply make the character you want, then there's a problem. It's called a Feat TAX.

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    And this is exactly why I pointedly did not put that option in the poll, and why WotC doesn't ask people in their polling what they don't want. Because you don't like something is not a good enough reason for it to not be included.

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    It's important because it is an aspect of the Warlord. It may not be the aspect you preferred or focused on, but it was still an important aspect that others did specifically use it for. Just as disappointed as you would be about a Warlord class that focused on healing, others would be just as...

    D&D 5E (2014) How many fans want a 5E Warlord?

    Uhm...No. 1 HP is not even close to Cure Wounds, nor is it enough for a non-magical campaign. And whether one calls it "pop-up" healing is likely subjective. Most people would consider "pop-up" healing to mean no longer unconscious and back in the fight. With only 1 HP, I'd think that most...

    D&D 5E (2014) Poll: How many people think polls with only one option are manipulative

    Yes - when they're being used to take a head-count rather than determine competing opinions. I think if one feels manipulated by them, it says more about the person than the poll.
