    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Several years ago, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to Angelopolis underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    It would be very funny if the warlord class was asked in the future by fault of a CRPG where the main character is a "warlord" with a "harem" of "monster girls". I imagine the D&D warlord as the leader of a warband from some skirmishes miniature game style Mordheim, Warcry or Warhammer...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Maybe some archetypes are reserved to be later with new special game mechanics. For example the shaman like a druid's cousin is harder to be sold, but if the new shaman is a mixture of recycled version of vestige pact magic and incarnum totemist then they can sold a different class. If the...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Now I am thinking if the future warlord will be a class, then it will be with some magic-like power, style the ki-techniques or martial maneuvers by martial adepts. A "no-magic" warlord only could be a fighter subclass. Or maybe the warlord will be a subclass of the martial adepts.

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    The warlord class shouldn't be a simple cheeleader with armour. Even each subclass should show its own identity. If you want a "not magic but almost" healing, then I advice to recover the maneuvers of the White Raven school from "Tome of Battle: Book of Nine Swords". A true warlord can't be in...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Edign Darvis the bard is the leader of the group, but he is not a "warlord". Daenerys Targaryen from "Song of Fire and Ice" is more a true "warlady". Tyrion Lannister in the battle of Blackwater would be close example. I don't imagine a warlord without at least a squad to be leaded and guided.

    D&D General Dungeons & Dragons Monster Joining Dead by Daylight

    Maybe it is not a new killer, but skins, for killers and survivors. The videogame has been designed for bipedal humanoids, and the beholder is too "fat" to go trought doors and windows. The dungeon could be a new zone, and this beholder would be one of the "traps".

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    I was thinking about the "healer heroes" from videogames, for example Mercy, Lucio, Ana, Zenyatta, Moira and Brigitte from "Overwatch". A true warlord shouldn't be only a walking magic-healer banner. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheLeader How would be a "warlord class"...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    We use hit points not only in D&D but most of videogames. WotC has to choose about a possible update of the martial adept classes and the martial maneuvers. I mean if there is an update of the "martial maneuvers" then some classes from previus editions could be redesigned, for example the...

    Sorry, Strahd and the rest of dark lords are in house arrest.

    WotC D&D teasing entry into Dead by Daylight

    I played Fortnite ( :Save the world) before the battle royal was famous. A collab Fortnite: D&D shouldn't be totally impossible. In the past I suggested some no-darklord character from Ravenloft in Dead by Daylight, maybe, or some idea of a crossover. I wonder if somebody working in WotC...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    My opinion is the future warlord will be designed to can be played in mass battles, but this is not ready yet. Maybe the future warlord class is right for dungeon-crawling, but if later there is a "module" about mass battles, because the buffs by the warlord then this class could be overpowered...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Have you seen the number of homemade versions warlord? A warlord in 5e could be like mixing BG3 and Age of Empires, or Age of Myths. Other option could be start from zero with a no-D&D videogame, and later with the experience to be adapted to D&D. It could be something style "Reign under Fire...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Paizo is playtesting the commander class. I wonder how would be playing with warlord classes in Cerilia/Birthright. Could a warlord to be the captain of a ship? For example in a Spelljammer campaing. My opinion is to roleplay a good warlord you should understar the keys of the true...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Let's remember the main keys to design a new class in 5ed. - Interesting concept. A paladin-like class with a different gameplay syste is not good to be sold. - Right power balance, of course. - Fun and simple gameplay. Now in 5ed this is very important. The class has to be easy to be...
