[QUOTE="Connorsrpg, post: 6398064, member: 19265"] That is all awesome. I actually love that you have done so many subclasses. With a lot of conversions (esp ones I have attempted), I have just noted that most options are actually already there. You have definitely differentiated each subclass mechanically. But even your Gallant egs above all talk about being a Noble. Being a Noble talks to background, not a fighting archetype. Seems a conumdrum to me. You have created awesome subclasses and I would find it hard to let go of them too ;) Not worried about having them all in same game at all. I actually love them, but just seeing a lot of conversions that seem to fit other areas (even when very well done :)). Regarding the 'fluff', I didn't really mean fluff. I mean Features that resemble BG Features. Do they belong in subclasses? Another stepping on the BG toes. Egs: Corsair - Fearsome rep; Gallant - Famed blade; Musketeer - United We Stand. These 'type' of features appear as BG Features in the PHB and I think these step on the toes of the BGs a little too much. (And may make the BG choices obsolete). And yes, YVMV too :) I am just pointing out what we saw upon reading you very well written piece. (I have gone to convert African Adventures classes and realised most options are actually available in the PHB. And some classes are really just BGs etc). Oh, and on the Kensai. I could see a Weapon Specialist here and under normal Fighter. I would want one focussed on 1 weapon like the OA versions. (But no need to inc here - it was just a thought as i was reading - b/c I love the Kensai ;)). [/QUOTE]
