Good to know. I've got an elven ranger that is probably gonna go for the first cool/fitting Archer LPrC that he sees.

There's a couple of great ranger-based LgCs amongst this lot... keep your eyes peeled for when it's finally finished... one is quite keyed towards elven rangers (IMO) and may suit your needs/wants perfectly...

and if worst comes to worst and the existing ones don't suit, I'm sure that if you ask nicely enough someone will help with creating something more suitable or tweaking an old LgC...

Well, I'm already working on some Legendary Prestige classes of my own, like the Black Luster Soldier(basically a champion of Chaos), and the Shining Silver Champion(BLS counterpart, but for Law). IF worse comes to worse, I might make one myself.

Re: No problems

I passed on your requests to Jeremy. As an artist, I can tell you there's a good reason not to include the shield in this composition. The focus is on the man and the weapon he's holding. In fact, his own focus is on the weapon. The added shape of the shield only dilutes the visual power of this arrangement. Do you see what I mean?

Yes I do, now. Thanks for explaining that.

Re: OGL and more...

Looking at Paul's OGL in his class, I have a problem. It's not necessary to copyright every part of your article, just the article itself. If anyone in the future lifts any part of that article, the new creation must note your copyright.

Sorry, I got citation happy. I'll make the correction...see below

Further, a common misinterpretation of the OGL causes authors to lift everything from the section 15 of any work they cite and put it in their own section 15. That's not what the OGL is meant to enforce.
<...snip...>
Note also the extensive inclusions in Section 15 of Path of the Sword. As far as I know, we needn't include those works, because our work does not use material from those sources.

If I'm wrong, show me how and show me why with clear facts.

Actually, this discussion gets rehashed on the OGF-L and the OGF-d20-L every couple months. It is the consensus of folks like Clark Peterson and Ryan Dancey that one must lift every citation in a sources S15. Of course, you don't have to include duplications...if you cite from 3 OGC sources, you don't need 3 instances of the OGL and the SRD in your S15.

Kaob looks okay except for a few things.

I'll work on getting the corrections you've requested within the next week or so. I should, hopefully, have some time this weekend to get the stuff brushed up.

...Legendary Prestige classes....

No offense meant, but the class group is just Legendary Class, not Legendary Prestige Class.

Hey Paul, thanks for the input on the OGL. I figured you'd know, since you have input on so many projects. Thanks for all your work, too. I hope you're happy with the outcome of the drawing by Jeremy. I'll post his revised sketches.

The concensus on the OGL seems goofy to me, despite prestigous and learned judgement, but I don't want to wait 3 months for Wizards legal to get back to me. Our OGL will have a meaty section 15, with chewy chunks!

Thanks again!

Path of Faith

Whoo hoo! My copy just came in. Now I get to play some more with Kaob's mount.

I'm still waiting for my local game store to get the copy of Path of magic I ordered through them in October last year... (I'd go directly through FFG but the cost of shipping to Australia is a little too much for me at this stage)

so, kingpaul, are you going to give us a comparison of Path of Faith and Path of the Sword...?

I can do that. Let me get to the weekend when I can look at the books side-by-side and take compare/contrast notes.
