If assume a "paladin" class, one could certainly envision a more Martial Flavored version, a more Divine spellcaster version, perhaps even a more trickster or mage version (these last two are a stretch, but bear with me). From the article, and I think given its history, Paladin is the name used for the more Warrior than Spellcaster version. They may make a more Divine spellcaster Paladin type and call it "War Domain Priest" or some such. So those complaining of a Monk falling under "Warrior", I am sure there may come a time when a monk version under the trickster heading will appear (ninja?), or one under the mage or priest heading. It may not be called "Monk". No matter. To (badly) paraphrase Shakespeare: A Monk by any other name still kicks just as much ass. So to look at Gyors possible solutions:1) There will be multiple sub-classes, A warrior Paladin and a Divine Paladin for example. As an extra, I doubt they will restrict a Warrior Paladin from using Divine Magic Items, for example. It will probably be a class feature. 2) The choice is made when choosing a class, "Paladin" if you want more martial, "War Priest" if you want more divine power3) Not really going to happen. The idea is for reference and consistent building over time. A new class in a later splat book will want to reference the superclasses.</blockquote>
