[QUOTE="EzekielRaiden, post: 8128601, member: 6790260"] Er...I mean, I wouldn't consider myself a Caster Supremacy League member, seeing as how I have consistently fought for reducing the power of spellcasting, developing non-spellcasting versions of classes like Paladin and Ranger, creating "simple" casters to parallel "simple" martials (and "complex" martials, like Warlords), giving Fighters more nice things especially outside of combat, etc. I find that this is less Caster Supremacy League infighting and more Wizard Supremacy League not being the entirety of people who like playing spellcasters. (Sorcerer is one of my favorite classes, alongside Warlord, Paladin, and Bard. I have a [I]thing[/I] for Charisma classes, for various reasons.) By far my favorite edition of D&D is 4e, if that helps? It's hard to be truly caster-supremacist and like 4e. Oh there have absolutely been people mad about it on all sides: pro-Wizard/anti-Wizard, pro-Sorcerer/anti-Sorcerer, pro-SV/anti-SV, all of them have had people getting their jimmies [I]thoroughly[/I] rustled. I just find it terribly sad that people respond to a [I]completely optional rules variant[/I] failing to appear officially in the game with "Ding dong the witch is dead!" and "REJOICE!" That is not "our team won the sportsball game," that is not satisfaction that good design won out, it is [I]revelling[/I] in the fact that the other side lost. It is "and GOOD RIDDANCE to BAD RUBBISH." [/QUOTE]
