[QUOTE="Aldarc, post: 6734615, member: 5142"] I have tried to have a civil conversation, but you have badgered me with a walls of quote text and accusations that often feels completely disconnected from the actual content of my posts. You repeatedly fail to listen to what I am saying and ignore contexts. I have repeatedly tried recommending that you re-read my posts from the beginning so that you will have a clearer understanding, but to little avail thus far. I'm not sure what I can say to you that will get my point across. My patience is not unlimited. Others seem to get what I am saying just fine. We can try starting the conversation over from a common point. What is your thesis? What is your main point or bottomline that you would like to communicate to me? Mine, by the way, which started all this mess was that [i]one can, in fact,[/i] have the rank of 'sergeant' or 'general' at first level via the Soldier background. That was it. My position on the PrC: I am open to other people exploring a Warlord PrC, and have not indicated otherwise, but I would greatly prefer the Warlord expressed as a full class in the official rules rather than a prestige class. In regards to leadership: I recognize that there is a difference between leadership and authority, but I also recognize that this is a distinction that did not always exist in history. My initial post regarding the term 'leader' having no place for the Warlord in 5e was tongue-in-cheek ribbing of those who constantly harp on the name 'leader' for 4e roles. I still would like some aspects of the authoritative command side of leadership to be minimized for the Warlord due to that blurred distinction that others may commonly have regarding leadership and authority. You are right that leadership is separate from authority, but it still rubs some people the wrong way, including those who may otherwise be warlord fans. [/QUOTE]
