One could grant an additional attack a no penalty. Another could provide three attacks per round at a penalty to attack rolls. And another could simply grant bonus damage.It could help gauge and differentiate the combat strength and skill of various classes.Paladins, barbarian. and other warrior classes could naturally get more and stronger stances than the next tier of classes.It could aid in creating characters that model different editions of  D&D.Fans of older edition could take simplistic stances that simply grant bonuses to damage rolls, attack rolls and armor class. Fans of the last editions could take more complicated stances that create complex effects.The main issue is whether the many fans of D&D can agree to this.</blockquote>
