[QUOTE="Torx, post: 3174521, member: 2730"] The interesting thing about this to me is how this method encourages people to have a good idea of their character concepts before playing. You gave the example of an ability score as a requirement for a feat. Another example would be choosing STR first corrals you into a warrior type, so some idea of a what the player wants to play is almost a must. I wonder how much of the characters' progressions were mapped out before the draft began. And if someone requires many good scores (like a monk or paladin) as opposed to a few (fighter or druid), and they do not acquire the scores they wish, their character concept might blow up in smoke. This obviously did not happen in your draft, el-remmen, but it seems like it might for some. I'm having a hard time reconciling encouraging (requiring) a solid character concept and progression while not ensuring that the character is a possibility. [/QUOTE]
