That's what I want to know. Are all Rogues considered Thieves? And are all Thieves considered Rogues? Thanks!!!

After a bit of research, I've found this to NOT be the case....... http://www.mjyoung.net/dungeon/char/clas008.html

There's no such word as "late" in role-playing!!!! ;)

It looks like a divided opinion..... 1) Knights and Cavaliers CAN be justified to coexist, assuming the design work put into said classes is convincing/different enough, and..... 2) The current system of D&D (5E) contains certain rules that suggest both the Knight and Cavalier classes are...

A grenadier or artillerist or sapper or demolitions expert could probably put this into effect.......

Yes, I know! :) Now I'm not too savvy when it comes to combat operations (the rules change faster than I can keep up), but it seems to me that a weapon like that would enable one to get a free shot off before an actual combat round even takes place. I'm wondering, what would this weapon be...

Wait a minute...... has the word "spells", in relation to a cleric (or paladin or knight, et. al.), been replaced with the word "miracles"??? :erm:

Very comprehensive answers. Thanks!!!!

Great comments! Any suggestions for range? Thanks!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z56v9zNoTpA OK. I'm looking at the part of the video from :48 to :57 (approximately). Is this the same as a sling? I'm talking about damage and range. Thanks!!!

You mean, like, the "Javelineer"?! :lol:

LoL, there's a "man-at-arms" class? And somebody distinguished that from the fighter?! HOW!?!?! And you left out grenadiers, dragoons, skirmishers, berserkers, grapplers, and the other thing..... :p

Call me crazy, but it sounds as if you're implying that Knights and Cavaliers are NOT the same thing! Am I correct? ;)

Thank you for the response! I wonder a few things...... 1) Which build was more powerful? The 1E Cavalier or the 3.5E Knight? 2) Did the two respective builds have ANYTHING in common, or were the powers/abilities completely different from one another? 3) Which was *better*? I.e., which of...

Having played this game since 1979, I'm well familiar with the inclusion of the Cavalier in 1985 (1E). Also, I have memories of a Knight being brought in somewhere in the mid-2000's (3.5E). Aren't these classes just variations on the same theme, but with a different name & different "feel"...

;) Good sir, the designers simply got their details WRONG. That is all! ;)

Sort of. I got several of the 3.0 books back when they first came out, but realized my ADD made it difficult to read & learn the rules. You see, there were just too many colorful pictures! :P I was active on these boards from around 2004 to 2006-ish, but then school and life got in the way. I...

Ah, thanks for that! I appreciate your answers. Sadly, they're not the *right* answers. And by that I mean, whoever designed 5E wasn't detailed enough to get the job done. Yeah, I don't think I'll be purchasing the books from this current edition. So, when's 6E coming out? :p

So, I was looking at the weapon list for 5E and found the Dagger and the Dart, but not the Knife. Are knives gone? Also, what is the effective ranges for the 3 different weapons? What is the rate of fire? Does weapon specialization exist in 5E? Thanks!!!!

Come to think of it, could there be something hiding in plain site? ;)
