[QUOTE="AaronOfBarbaria, post: 7043560, member: 6701872"] I think it is arbitrary to insist that a concept be attempted as a core class, rather than be attempted in whatever form best matches concept to design paradigm. I literally cannot stop doing a thing that I have not begun doing. I can see how someone might choose to interpret that implication as being present, but that is reader bias and there is nothing I can do to change that. I can only tell you that I put the words I meant in the order I meant them, and I didn't include any words without reason. The "so far" is key - no reason for me to include those words other than to show my statement as applying to potential future inclusions, which is pretty much the exact opposite of suggesting it shouldn't be tried again. Can you point to exact portions of the statement I made that indicate the implication you've falsely accused me of making? It's feedback you may want to apply to yourself, given the following: is a claim I didn't make, and I know you know I didn't make it. Perhaps you were reading my statements hastily again, and as a result have seen what I did say (that there are ways to make a warlord-like character) as this thing that I didn't say (that there are three versions of the warlord core class in the game). Perhaps you just don't see those things as being different, while I do (which would get us back to the unbridgeable gap). Encoding the message? I think you've grown paranoid, Tony. I'll let this accusation of nefarious behavior slide though, as a gesture of the good faith with which I approach our discussion. I see now why you thought I was confused. I admit I could have worded that particular statement more clearly to be showing hypothetical confusion (confusion I would experience assuming someone were actually saying the statement I mentioned it sounds like was being said) rather than current confusion. But since no one was saying that something being officially released by WotC in print means they'll like it regardless of its other qualities, I am not confused - even though I still lack full understanding of Zapp's priorities, I am not confused about them (I know what they are, and I know his reasons for having them, but I don't fully understand because those reasons do not resonate with me).
