[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 3672481, member: 29014"] The interesting thing is that I think we are much the same as players, you and I. I too like playing the martial adepts but am bored to tears playing a Fighter. On the other hand, I don't want to force that upon my players, who don't hold the same opinions. And for at least one, pulling the carpet out from under him by adding new classes that make his obsolete would be like that. Now, he wouldn't get mad and rail out against that decision or anything like that, but I can tell he doesn't enjoy the sessions as much when his character is marginalised. The nearly-single-school Bo9S Martial Adept is still a powerful and fun option to play, but because it focuses on a smaller set of choosable manoeuvres, it makes it harder to build a scary character through cherrypicking of the best of several schools. My players are pretty good at picking fun (for them, at least) and viable options for their characters to take care of the rest. [/QUOTE]
