Warlove? Warhate?

[Nahat Anoj]

The only thing I don't like is that there are three "w" classes in the PHB. On top of that, two "war" classes. You'd think with even a simple thesaurus they'd have something better, not to mention the sum total of human languages to draw from.

If it helps, I feel that the Warlock should have been called "Sorcerer." In most sword and sorcery literature, people whose dalliances with dark, perilous entities gain them power are called "sorcerers."

It's not like it's a huge deal to me, but it sticks at my craw a bit ... just like how halflings should have been called kender IMO ...

Oh, and Warlords rock IMO. Not only do I have Warlove, I have a Warhardon, if you know what I mean ...

Is that sarcasm?

Of course not.

I'm just waiting for all the puns like "Lock and Lord!"

Or a "Team Rocket" inspired NPC duo named Locke and Lourdes?

I think you mean Hobbits, not Kinder.

No hobbits ever, thanks.

I like the warlord. I could definitely enjoy playing a character like that, and I like the subtle distinction between the "defensive" inspiring warlord and the "offensive" tactical warlord.

I love the Warlord with all of my...ah wait, Hong's already in the thread.

There's a very good chance my first character is going to be a Dragonborn Warlord.

Don't like the skills, don't like the fact that his abilities only seem to function in combat (unlike the marshal who was _very_ useful outside of combat).

Do like the theme/idea/high-order-bit. And I think given the reality that is 4e, what we've seen looks quite nice.

Hobbits always.
Wilco the Hobbit: "You just call me 'halfling'?! You can't say that. 'Halfling' is OUR WORD."


Man, Warlords are just WotC looking at Iron Heroes and realizing the idea behind the Hunter class was a good one and deciding to dress it up with a really wrong title.
