Sorry Drolyt; if you reread the previous post, you'll notice that I don't consider "so-and-so is more powerful" a valid point of argument.
I'll discuss points individually but basing policy around "I can do this if my GM doesn't mind me dictating his game to him" is not something i'm willing to do. And yes, that's how i hear the crux of your previous post.
No, i'm not wrong, just different, old-school and stubborn as hell.
Anyway, I duly await the next evil-tastic iteration of the class. Roll on Sir Chivalry!
