Legend
A core issue with (warlord's) inspirational healing is the various ways people use hit points in game. Some use it as moral and endurance, and some use it as physical damage. Not to mention the plenty of people in between.

So why not let each table decide how to interpret the inspirational healing as well?

Something like....

"Inspiring Word: Some say the inspiration is similar to the bards magic, others believe that there is blood of the kings running through their veins, or the power of faith and devotion towards your comrades like a paladin, yet others simply see only hard work and practice at choosing the right words. Yet no one can deny that the words seem to resonate in whoever hears it, having an impact far beyond your average encouragement."

I agree with the prior poster. People can homebrew whatever Warlord they like, and create whatever rules they want for healing. That's the beauty of homebrew.
But that's boring. If it's not official, what are we going to argue about?

There are way too many people way too eager to argue about everything already.

I prefer that people homebrew the Warlord, but do you know what? Even if it was official, or semi-official, it wouldn't matter to my group, because it would be house-ruled out of our campaign... just like certain official races and classes that are currently in the PHB. Other than sanctioned events, *it doesn't matter.* People can do what they want.

It's way easier for you to say "Hey no warlocks" then me making the warlock class whole cloth... same with warlord

I'm of the same mind, I just wish they had done the same with Clerics and Wizards.
