Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mokona" data-source="post: 3638145" data-attributes="member: 24891">I do want to model Dungeons & Dragons (and fantasy heavily-influenced by D&D) but I agree with your list of classes.  Warrior, Scoundrel, Scout, Noble, Mage, and Priest.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" />All classes (under Saga) share the Talent and Bonus Feat features.  Individual choices within those allow each class to cover a wide array of class concepts (and Trained Class Skills as well).However, some parts of semi-generic Saga classes are the same for every member of a class.1.  Base Attack BonusAll warriors have a Fighter base attack bonus whether they're an armored tank or a hard hitting brute.  Should we have any class with Wizard base attack bonus progression?  I personally want at least two classes to have Fighter base attack bonus progression.  Perhaps base attack bonus is less important in this system but until I believe that I would want players desiring Fighter BAB to have more than one option.  I suggest Fighter base attack for Warriors and Scouts; Cleric base attack for Priests, Scoundrels, and Nobles; and Wizard base attack for Mages and Psionicists <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt="(:" title="Smile    (:"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname="(:" />p).2.  DefenseThere are three (3) defenses and six classes so approximately two (2) classes should be "good" at each defense.  Probably Priests should have Monk-like equal bonuses in all three.3.  Skill SlotsI'd like to see a little more flexibility here than D&D because I like that Saga Warriors don't get only two (2) skills.-----What I'm nervous about is how one would make a Paladin.  One option (that I favor) is to have a set of low level Priest, Mage, and Psionicist powers available to everyone (like Force Adepts in Saga) and a Paladin is just a Warrior with the Priestly talents.  Two alternate options would be a Priest-light talent only in the Warrior talent options or a Fighter/Magic-User class (a seventh character class) that has talent trees for Paladin, Ranger, Hexblade, &c.</blockquote>
