[QUOTE="Dacileva, post: 3753811, member: 12957"] You asked for evidence that there were objections. I provided that evidence. I also didn't feel like sifting through several thousand pages of posts, so I grabbed a few [b]standout[/b] posts I saw, just from [b]skimming[/b], jumping by ten to a hundred pages at a time. The warlock exists as an alternative to Vancian spellcasting. Did you read how many of those posts said things like "I hate the Vancian spellcasting system, so the warlock is great!"? If they weren't noteworthy, I wouldn't have posted them as evidence. And you'd be surprised how many well-regarded posters here are just as well-regarded on USENET. Why does [b]ANY[/b] variant exist? Because the original is either too limited, or too restrictive. From the introduction to Recharge Magic, the phrase "players... no longer have to face the disappointment of a retreat to town just when they’re on the cusp of the adventure’s climax" jumps out at me. Everyone who can access a computer has access to UA. It's OGL. [url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/magic/rechargeMagic.htm[/url] I expected this, when I considered whether to post or not. You said: I've provided what you asked for (some sort of evidence (e.g. links)). How you deal with that information is entirely your choice. Explain how Vancian spellcasting does not cause either: 1) Attrition encounters; or 2) The 15-minute adventuring day. [/QUOTE]
