[QUOTE="roytheodd, post: 1400743, member: 1508"] I’ve noticed that Warlord has been advertising here with a banner ad. I’ve got a lot of friends that play it weekly and some of them even bring their decks with them to the RPG table. The main combat mechanic is very familiar and it feels very much like the d20 combat system. The guys who bring decks to the RPG table say they like it for that exact reason, and they say they use it to get into a more D&D mood. It’s also really neat to see how closely other elements of the game mirror D&D: like classes, subclasses, and alignment. Over the years I’ve seen the guys play evil paladin decks, lich decks, dragon decks, rogue stealth decks, and all sorts of other things that evoke high fantasy in my mind. I tried the game a few years ago when there were demo decks in my Dragon Magazine and I really liked it. I bought some of the current expansion and I’ve been playing a bit more recently. I really like it a lot more now than I did then. I think that a couple of years of development really have the design and balance down better. I’ve also learned that they’ve just added monks and psions to the game too. I don’t really know where I’m going with this post, but the banner ad made me want to comment. I was just thinking that with a game that feels so like D&D and is so comfortable to a d20 player, that I guess it kind of surprises me that I never see mention of it here, even in passing. Has anybody else tried it and been excited about it? [/QUOTE]
