I posted this in Discussion, but I'm reposting here in case anyone isn't following that part of the thread:

 Well, from an outsider's perspective--you guys already have 2 divine casters and 2 arcane casters, with two of your characters dealing with ranged.  You have a good number of skills covered, but you don't really have a true "tank" (if you're looking at traditional class roles).  I think that's why people wanted to submit more martial characters. 
Brogan is going to have a healthy investment in keeping enemies away from the squishier ranged/caster types, and he has ok skills (at least for a fighter).
I submitted him because, yeah, I completed book 1 with him and he's a fun character.
I also have a Lore Warden I've been wanting to try out that I can submit instead (or just make Brogan or Lore Warden).  He would have a lot more skills, including Knowledge Skills and UMD.  Still tanky, but can contribute more outside of combat (and focuses more on maneuvers/control than always focusing on damage).
I have good Perception, decent Knowledge (Dungeoneering), Survival, and a good assortment of physical skills--I think I can contribute decently outside of a fight.  And in a fight I'm not just straight damage, but pretty versatile with some battlefield control and maneuvers (and Tactician should work decently with the summons/animal companion).
I guess my question is--what is it that you guys think the group is lacking?
