I'm reading through all the threads here about the difficulty of later chapter encounters...Just starting to play this AP with 5 characters: paladin, fighter, rogue, cleric, and wizard. We are an experienced bunch but our style does not necessarily focus on optimization. I'm wondering though, should I scale back the mythic tiers available to characters? Has anyone taken this approach? Perhaps 5 spaced incrementally instead of 10?

Hey all, I'm looking for some advice on how to create a character like Maximus from Gladiator. Not a gladiator based character, but rather General Maximus as he was at the start of the movie. Essentially, a good melee fighter that also has some commander abilities. No arcane or divine casting ability.

Just wondering, am I the only one who doesn't care about this? After being bombarded by the constant rhetoric, I am fatigued! In fact, this is for you, my whiny, government expanding, endangered rodent saving, wealth spreading, wasteful program creating, America hating, liberal pals. And also for you, my god fearing, overly proud, fear mongering, big CEO venerating, scientifically illiterate, Glenn Beck loving conservative friends. I am politically AGNOSTIC! I am on vacation from you guys. You are really starting to annoy me - leave me alone!

Ahhh, that's better. Ok, a little tongue-in-cheek fun. Please don't take it to heart my polarized readers. To be just a touch more philosophical....We seem to have lost perspective in this country. I love this Jefferson quote: "Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle". Man, this country and culture has become so much about chest thumping and streams of misinformation. "Keep saying it until it's true" seems to be the policy of both parties.

The thing is, biology tells us that populations of the same species vary. Americans will always exhibit great variation: philosophically, politically - heck I even heard we vary morphologically..? Somewhere along the way, we split into two divisions and then clung to those beliefs like life rafts. Inheriting or learning from those before us that two sides exist - chose one. You can stray a little, but you are a traitor if you stray too much.

Oh well, perhaps I lack strong conviction because I have not done enough research to develop well crafted point-of-views. I can hear the crowd coming already - stone the non-believer! See ya, gotta go!!
