What is with all the new classes?
The new classes are generally speaking variations of the old ones. The scout, for example, is a non-magical ranger, but the sneak-attack ability from the rogue (but only with ranged weapons) and some unique abilities as well. Scouts are much more common than rangers in RoE. Q: I don’t recognize the bloodlines from the BRCS! A: That is because we don’t use the BRCS. I have my own version, more closely based on the old 2E system (well, maybe that’s an exaggeration, but I like to think so). Long Life is has changed drastically (it is still very useful for regents, but you won’t live forever). Bloodtrait and Bloodform are banned.
