[QUOTE="dead_radish, post: 1865309, member: 5560"] I'm a waffle. I've actually gone over to Halfling as I created the character. The fact that a Half-Giant PsyWar wouldn't be able to get the 2nd level combat prof until at least level 8 changed me over. 7 isn't much better, but it's at least a possibility. And the main Half-Giant benefits (2 pp, act as large) are far less useful in DanMC's system - you can get the same kind of size increase just by taking the prof. feat. ;) Plus, with the powerful build, it's just too amusing to not play them. I have stats here, and the bg is coming soon. I don't know how to calc DR or Defense bonus, so I left those out.
