    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Warlord Demand Poll

    "We"? You may have been. But I wasn't speaking only to you. Also, please don't make the mistake of assuming* you are speaking for everyone. [*you know what happens when you assume...]

    And there are entire states, every presidential election, that are stunned at the results. They simply cannot believe how it turned out. See the connection...?

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Warlord Demand Poll

    Did you intend to misrepresent what I said? I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt as the last edition warrior, that you accidentally twisted what I said into the opposite of itself. So as to get a chance to speak to this imagined war on 4e you perceive everywhere.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Warlord Demand Poll

    This constant, disingenuous attempt to relate EKs with wizards has gotten so old. They are nothing alike. They flimsily cross over in one aspect. One. That the EK uses the wizard's spell list (and for the majority of their career, only a tiny fraction of it at that). That's it. So please stop...

    You say that like you do not believe they already have such data. I believe they do. Plenty of it. And it has guided them to where we are now. We've already repeatedly discussed how EN World in particular seems to be the hotbed of Warlord fanaticism. And that it might skew any results seen...

    D&D 5E (2014) I allow using INT for initiative bonus, thoughts?

    I do think people sometimes forget the abstraction inherent in initiative as a number. Too much thought and analysis is going into it, for what it really is, IMO. After all, my 8 dex goliath has beaten our group's rogue more than a few times on initiative. What does that even mean? Because...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Warlord Demand Poll

    Yes, apparently we do need to go over it again. Because your statement is irrelevant to my point. Or, perhaps, a red herring or strawman?... I said the devs feel they've addressed warlords sufficiently already. I am asserting that they believe they've covered the essence of what the warlord...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Warlord Demand Poll

    If you are going to represent what the devs have, or have not, done, it might be in your best interest to take into consideration their perspective on the matter. They feel they've *already* covered the warlord. On a multitude of fronts. Both in various ways throughout the 5e PHB, as well as...

    D&D 5E (2014) I allow using INT for initiative bonus, thoughts?

    I do not believe the wisdom score is actually an average of dexterity and intelligence, no.

    D&D 5E (2014) I allow using INT for initiative bonus, thoughts?

    Which is why I suggested an average of the two stats. So [DEX+INT]/2. Sure, a wizard can still take a decent DEX. But it likely won't be as high as INT, and so will taper down their bonus a tad at least. Likewise, a rogue is further incentivized to take a decent INT. Not just to keep initiative...

    What about average of INT & DEX?

    Was it? Are you sure? Because I felt it needed an answer and so provided one. Usually rhetorical questions don't need answers. I've been around a huge number of AL tables. I'm positive there have been plenty of groups that would have had zero issue with you playing that class. Me included.

    I don't mean to be too on the nose, but I'm not sure if you are using the word "can" correctly... ;) Besides, this ain't the RPGA anymore. DMs have now been explicitly given a lot more power and leeway to run as they see fit at their tables. Even still, there aren't any AL Compliance Police...

    Yes*. [*I'd say, as long as the AL DM is cool with it and none of the players have any personal objections, I fail to see how anyone would stop you.]

    IMX, folks who express this kind of attitude are often the same ones who think WotC is crazy for not having already called them, begging for them to take the lead in doing the thing. Oh, look. The rest of your post goes on to show just how true that seems to be. Check out all the amazing things...

    Funny you should mention context. Because I used it when I read what Hussar said. Fact? That's rich. How many does the barbarian have? There you go getting hung up on names again... And to think someone just a few posts upthread was claiming no one wanted to directly port the 4e warlord into...

    No you can't. At least not to anyone but yourself. You can't possibly dictate "what's missing" for others.
