Has anyone bothered to check?The warlord is getting some attention because of a half-dozen ardent fans and some subtle edition warring going on, as the warlord has become the poster boy for 4e. The absence of the warlord is a way to vent about their dislike of 5e. You mean the unofficial poll on a staff member's blog?No, it really isn't. There's massive sampling bias from where it was posted and who could vote. A post on the front page of ENWorld would be just as relevant. And?There's a clear number of people unsatisfied with lots of things. The moon druid, the beastmaster ranger, the champion fighter, the bard, the berserker barbarian, and many others. Pointing out that geeks are complaining that something they enjoy is not perfect is hardly game changing news.Or the fighter, or the paladin, or the ranger...There have been attempts. I'm a fan of the "commander" personally. While it has military rank connotations like the warlord, it also has the verb of "one who commands". Marshal would also work. Tactician could also work. But, apparently, even renaming the warlord is not an option and is a deal-breaker...</blockquote>
