[QUOTE="saucercrab, post: 3427202, member: 3659"] (My apologies for not responding until now. Real world was intruding on free time.) Okay. :) I understand your reasoning, I just don't agree. True, but my point was/is that one way that the Summon Shadow stance can end (dead shadow-buddy), has no precedent in official stances. Every other stance ends because of something that happens to the character personally. I quite understand your reasoning for having it work your way. My disagreement lies in how I see maneuvers & stances working; Summon Shadow is more a maneuver to me than a stance. A difference in design method that will have to just be. :shrugs: :) Would the character know the difference between the two (death or range)? The official PrCs have maneuvers & stances separated in their write-ups. In each, it's spelled out that new learned maneuvers/stances are limited to certain schools; additional readied manuevers, while in the new maneuvers section, are a new paragraph, & don't note any limitations. Your writeups have additional readied maneuvers sandwiched in between the two in one section, with one qualifier at the beginning of the section; to me, that implies that the qualifier will apply to the whole section. I just wanted to make sure that you & the book meant the same thing. BTW, like the new (from the last time I checked in) PrC's, especially, [I]especially[/I], the diamond psion. Psionics is such a better fit for melding with martial adepts (compared to other systems, even spellcasting) that the fact that the book has no PrC for them is a strike against it in my book. ;) [/QUOTE]
