well I do think that they need more skills as class skills, fighter has almost none, same as sorcerers. Skill points I don't think they need more of. yes the figher is a trained solder but why would you train a solder with anything more the basics of what you need them for. If you need a scout you train a scout, if you need a leader you train a leader, if you need a medic you train a medic. But why would you train a medic, scout, and a leader for a unit? There should be a arctype for scout that gives them the right skill sets. But a gen fighter is a solder, not anything more.
From statements like this I have to assume you have never served in the military. It's been almost 20 years now but I served for 9 years as a medic and let me tell you from my experience that they don't just teach you one single thing and figure that's enough. They DO teach basic medical skills to everyone, they DO constantly try to encourage and develop leadership skills in soldiers (at least good units do), they do teach basic combat skills to everyone, etc... Training doesn't stop upon completely basic training, training NEVER stops as long as you are in the service. They don't just rely on one person to spot ambushes or to lead.
If you need a scout you train a scout, if you need a leader you train a leader, if you need a medic you train a medic. But why would you train a medic, scout, and a leader for a unit?
You said if you need a medic you train a medic. I was a medic and I was trained as a medic, but I was ALSO trained as a leader, and I was trained to operate tactically amongst many, many other things. To think that they are going to train someone just enough to stand there like a moron and poke things is shortsighted and naive.
