[QUOTE="Sadrik, post: 6194815, member: 14506"] I don't agree, I believe the fighter is for beating heads in and taking a punishment and keep going. That does not absolutely require weapons, It means they will have a method and attack based on their abilities and equipment. I feel unarmed could be an excellent method. I did not like the mechanics of bo9s, I liked the concepts though. I liked that the "fighter" in bo9s had some nifty abilities. I did not like the resource management of the system. I feel like it would have been better suited to have made the abilities feats, rather than "spells". Why I brought it up though is the Warblade and Swordsage, one was a stout d12 warrior type who took a punishment and had a few abilities, while the swordsage was a 3/4 BAB guy who had lots of abilities. This is how the I see the rogue and the fighter. Granted the rogue would have more rogue like abilities but they have more abilities. Again I do not agree. The rogue even as currently written has a lot of combat abilities. Sneak attack is massive. Mobility and stealth and deception are also utilized in combat. Out of combat too, but these are their combat abilities! Does the monk have to have the same mix of that stuff for them to be in the "trickster" group? No they might have other abilities. They still have the most abilities, or should. Not all the abilities need to be combat related. They should be skilled in many areas. Fighters should have abilities too, just not as many and their abilities are more in the stock numbers d12 HD, any armor or weapon, hit and damage consistently well etc. [/QUOTE]
