[QUOTE="Tony Vargas, post: 6732857, member: 996"] Just to summarize some the proposed compromises mentioned in this thread: [b]Warlord[/b] Noble Dragonborn make the last stand of a vanishing empire, a young recruit picks up her slain commander's banner and rallies her fellows to victory, an elf plans a cunning ambush for hated orcish enemies, a plucky sidekick's cry for help spurs his heroes to action, villagers repel a bandit raid thanks to the training provided by a grizzled dwarven mercenary, when all is darkness a friend's voice calls you back from the brink to stand and fight on. Sometimes they are heroes, sometimes they stand behind the heroes and fade into the mists of history, but when few stand against many, when the fortunes of war shift, when odds are defied and victory snatched from the jaws of defeat, as like as not, a Warlord was involved. [i]Some attribute the extraordinary abilities of famous Warlords to a divine heritage or blessing, or some supernatural connection to primal forces of conflict, or even simply to luck or fate. Some say that there must be more than just charismatic leadership or tactical brilliance - perhaps the mystic secrets of some militant cabal left over from some forgotten empire, or a subtle magic of word & deed that doesn't follow the same laws as the mighty magic of wizards and their ilk - behind a Warlord's string of improbable victories. Most Warlords would agree. There is something greater than themselves that deserves the credit for those victories: their allies.[/i] Whatever the source of their extraordinary accomplishments, Warlords are an asset to any party seeking victory in battle... blah, blah, blah... ....and *insert an awesome 5e class here* [/QUOTE]
