The one and only Oberoni is definitely going.

I will say from past observation that Frank's crazy sounding GenCon plan actually seemed to work for him.

I heard such good things about this system when it first came out, but this thread is making me glad I never got the book.

I like the idea of a Samurai being an "honor elemental" almost. Cool.

Better feats. Less paperwork. (Plus, each feat will make you feel nice and tingly inside)

This needs a prestige class so bad.

Nah.

PhoneLobster's on to something - get the DM to explain exactly what the horrible part of your character concept is, and explain why it's comfortable. With facts and well-founded observations. Vague statements should be meant by "what do you mean?" and "how does that translate into gam...

Frank, I'm curious...do you like any part of D&D?

This is a serious question. So far, I think you strongly dislike:

1) psions,
2) rogues,
3) spellcasters, and
4) non-spellcasters

for different reasons. Yes? No?
