This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quoteit makes the fighter obsolete

The fighter was made obsolete by all other classes and add-ons. Now he´s back for vengeance!

Tactical, flexible butt-kicking: Yay!

Trivia:
Did you know that Mearls nearly became a co-founder of a wellknown indie site, but instead chose to concentrate on his freelancing?

The "fighter" archetype never was lost, the Fighter class is worse than ever. Who would want to play a straight fighter when you've got a warblade. Apart from all the kung fu stuff, they can switch focus and specialization whenever they like...

Warblade is the new fighter. And you can even play him without manga-kungfu aesthetics.

Sweet, sweet awesome.

"Last night Mike Mearls saved my game!" actually fits with "Last night a DJ saved my life!", and thus a gaming filk was born.

"Mearls" is pronounced with two syllables?

Actually I oftentimes use lines from songs in thread and blog titles. And the song mentioned was exactly the one I was alluding to.

We´d have to sing:

"Mea - hearls", I guess.

or

"Mr. Mearls"

or

"Mikey Mearls"

How about that:

Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game
yeah
'cause I was sittin' there bored to death
And in just one book he said: You gotta get up
You gotta get off
you gotta get down
boy.
You know
you drive me crazy
Fighter
You've got me turning to another class.
Buildin´ my melee guy
you make me crie -
Fighter
Why are you designed die?
And if it wasn't for maneuvres I don't know what I do.
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game from a broken class.
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game with a book.
You know I looked into my PHB - didn't get very far
I know.
Before I had you on my mind - why be so unkind?
You've got your feats all around
all around your levels.
But I was trapped in love with you and I didn't know what to do
But then I flipped through the B9S
found out all I need to know.
- Check it out. -
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game from a broken class.
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game
Last night Mr. Mearls saved my game with a book.
Hey
listen up to your WotC author - you better hear what he's got to say
There's not a problem
That he can't fix
'cause he can do
On the double. And    
you don't let it
Trouble your brain
'cause away goes trouble    
Down the drain. Said
Away goes trouble down
The drain. - Well
all right.

Between the filk, and this comment:
Quote from: SettembriniSweet stuff! It plays like Palladium Covers look.
I have to say that Settembrini, you rock. :D

Over at EnWorld they have a thread of filk, if I can find the link I'll pass it on to you in case you want to add this to it.
"Dr.Who and CoC are, on the level of what the characters in it do, unbelievably freaking similar. The main difference is that in Dr. Who, Nyarlathotep is on your side, in the form of the Doctor."
-RPGPundit, discovering how BRP could be perfect for a DR Who campaign.

Take care Nothingland. You were always one of the most ridiculously good-looking sites on the internets, and the web too. I\'ll miss you.  -"Derek Zoolander MD" at a site long gone.

Sure! That might be cool.
I am not allowed to search ENWorld, so I´d appreciate avoiding the google-fu-hussle.
