[QUOTE="Tony Vargas, post: 6835274, member: 996"] You do realize you've probably garnered a reputation with regards to the Warlord? And, we already know fighter archetypes can't measure up. Those sales would show an interest in maneuvers, though, which is, in itself, as far as sales of amateur 3pp materials go, perhaps slightly disappointing. And, really, you're also looking at a phenomenon like we had with Essentials: Essentials didn't sell well, even though it finally delivered the "I just wanna hit da orc wit m' ax" style 'Simple Fighter' that was supposedly so glaringly missed. WotC didn't interpret that as a rejection of the simple fighter, nor the generally more varied sub-class designs in Essentials. 5e has the simple fighter and classes with distinct sub-classes and varied mechanics, just like Essentials, only more so, and is doing well. No, it's just that the faux warlord 3pp offering wasn't perceived as solution. Which is fair, the problem is that WotC has yet to offer a full class Warlord. That will not be solved with a sub-class from an amateur 3pp. [/QUOTE]
