Smart/Fast-Jedi giving you a bit of that Sentinel flavor ... Charismatic-Jedi the infamous and seldom-seen Jedi generals, teachers, leaders.  Anybody else thought of this?  Not that I even have the TIME for another game, but I find myself wondering what games wouldn't work as well or better within the 6-class framework.--fje</blockquote>
