[QUOTE="deganawida, post: 9191365, member: 67836"] This will likely be my last post for some time, but I did say that I would try to make a post today, and an elephant’s faithful, 100%. As I have mentioned elsewhere, my love of fantasy comes primarily from cartoons of the late 70s and early to mid 80s. Specifically, Thundar, Blackstar, Galtar, He-Man, and Thundercats. These were cartoons focused upon warriors, some of whom began as mighty, and others who grew into a force to be reckoned with, who fought evil sorcerers. As a result of the above, and much of the fantasy literature which was readily available in the very early 90s, I grew to love the archetype of the fantasy warrior. 4e was the first time in any game system, and I have tried a bunch, where I felt that I could emulate those seminal cartoon warriors who so impacted me. Want to be He-Man? 4e has you covered. Dirk the Daring? 4e. Lion-O? 4e has your back. 300’s Leonidas? Dude, Tide of Iron, and down with Xerxes. About the only thing which wasn’t covered by the 4e Fighter at release was cover in Martial Power 1, then 2, then finally with the Slayer in Essentials. No other D&D game gave a fighter who was at the same level as the other classes and had moments of awesome either built in or available from level 1 to end game. For that, I will always treasure 4th Edition, as it finally let me play the heroes that got me into this hobby in the first place. [/QUOTE]
