[QUOTE="Paul Farquhar, post: 7878170, member: 6906155"] [B]Shared Assult[/B] is too powerful - it gives [I]all [/I]fighters a Battlemaster ability for free. It would have to be a "replaces" ability - your warlord can grant an extra attack to allies but they do not get it themselves. Otherwise the idea is excellent (if very like the PDK*) - but I doubt the Fighter has enough replaceable abilities to really satisfy warlord fans. Which I think is the real problem - however you do Warlord it won't be identical to the 4e warlord, because the rules are different. ALL classes are different in 5e than they where in earlier editions, but averaged across multiple editions there is a clearer idea of what the core essence of the class is compared to something from one edition only. But even then there where a lot of complaints, and (IMO) they got the sorcerer wrong. Hence the objection to the 3PP versions. An "official" version might be different to that, but won't be "better" - it will still fail to satisfy a significant chunk of the warlord fans who have been asking for it. * You could used the proposed "Superior Technique" Fighting Style to give a PDK Commander's Strike or Rally.
