[QUOTE="N'raac, post: 6178484, member: 6681948"] First, I think the choice Mearls may be seeing is perceived as "all get Sneak Attack" or "they can trade it off for less/no combat abilities and more noncombat focus". This thread shows "it should be one of several equivalent combat options" is much more popular, with a significant group wanting to restrict the replacement abilities to combat abilities, at least as the default/core rule. That gradation's not really in the poll (so I have not voted). Second, this is a poor sample as people on the group are already experienced gamers likely to be interested in more options and OK with more complexity. As well, the thread title probably leads more "make it optional" readers to pop in at the outset. I wonder how the choices "Mandatory for all rogues"; "Let them choose from equally useful combat options" "Let them trade it off for combat or non-combat abilities" and "Let them trade it for more non-combat abilities only" would go over.
