[QUOTE="Erekose, post: 408396, member: 610"] MonkeyBoy - at last someone else with the book able to reply to my original post! I agree with what you've written - but didn't want to colour any opinions by giving my view first! My only real pet hate is the warp spasm. I always envisioned it as the equivalent of the barbarian's rage (but with a more visual effect!). The rules for them follow a similar pattern to rage but assign it as a race attribute. I could live with that except the Tribal Warrior can rage as well . . . In essence I would prefer the "warp spasm/rage" to be either a class ability or a race ability and not a mixture of both. Ideally I would prefer it as a class ability using the rage mechanic (in keeping with the barbarian) with perhaps a limited cause fear effect (radius and DC increasing with level). I can only assume that rage and warp spasm were kept separate to enable berserkers to be Tribal Warriors rather than Warped Ones. However, from the relevant myths I don't recall the riastarthe being more powerful than the beserksgangr . . . However, as I said in my last post the book gives a good basis for a DM to work with.
