I enjoyed the mechanical benefit of minions in the Fourth Edition, but they did strain belief at high levels: the monster could die with one blow, but it had a huge armour class.I am nervous about most of things being said about fighters. Disarming, sundering, bull rushing, tripping and grappling are mundane everyday things any character can do with enough strength. I like to see some flashy and stunning tricks and combinations: basically many of the Fourth Edition powers were tricks that allowed the Fighter to do more than one thing with a single action. The Rule of Three here seems to be suggesting that the Fighter can do the three actions of hit, trip and push in one efficient action, but if it just means use your move and standard and minor action, that is three actions spent. The clerical Flamestrike takes one standard action. But i have no idea what the action economy will be in the Fifth Edition, which is why I am nervous but undecided.</blockquote>
