[QUOTE="green slime, post: 2968888, member: 1325"] Because of three reasons: Historically over various versions of the game, Paladins turned as a cleric 2 levels lower. I didn't want to suddenly nerf those players in the campaigns I was running with less oomph for their turning. I wanted Turning undead for Paladins to still be a valid option, rather than just a means of obtaining Divine Might. IOW, I wanted paladins to be faced with a choice: "Do I lay the smackdown on this BEG, or do I chill out and save some juice in case I run into some Shadows?" (Shadows are always nasty, because of their incorporeal touch attack) As for special mount replacement? I'd suggest something along the lines of what meatboy suggested; arms and armour that increase in potential as the Paladin levels. I think the Kensai in OA had some similar mechanic, as well as the weapons of Legacy book. I'd really have to spend a bit more time mulling that over. [/QUOTE]
