[QUOTE="gamesmeister, post: 4273525, member: 43395"] Surely you're not serious...lack of things to do??? Let me see, I'm a first level Fighter in 3.5, I'm facing a kobold, what shall I do. I know, I'll hit him with my sword. What's that, my turn again...ok, I'll hit him with sword... We've played three sessions so far with KotS, and the fighter continually has different things to do, particularly using his powers to challenge different creatures thus controlling the dynamic of combat. He has four different powers to use in addition to hitting the kobold, plus feats, plus basic actions from the rulebook (e.g. push, grab etc), all of which add tactical options to the game. My Warlord continually has to balance how he should give tactical assistance to his fellow characters with how much he should heal them, as well as his desire to go smack the other kobold. Personally I think your point C) above is influencing your approach to this system and to an extent you've made up your mind before you've even started. Maybe I'm wrong but that's how it seems to me. Personally I'm loving 4e - for the first time in 25+ years of gaming I'm itching to both play and GM D&D. [/QUOTE]
