I know antares, but I still want a religious movement on this one. Cuz the only moving I see is from the bowels and I'm not really feeling the whole situation one bit.

Imperial Gaurd
We don't need to be Imperial gaurds, it would be nice, but no big deal.
Hybrid Proffesion
There is no way in hell that thunderheart could think we are a hybrid proffesion. He must have ment that EVERYONE is supposed to make their own hybrid proffesions out of the lesser proffesions.
BUT, our point, ThunderHeart, is that a Pikeman/Brawler would get his ass handed to him by a TKA/brawler, a Pistoleer/Brawler or a Swordsman/Brawler, and a Pikeman/Doctor would get the crap kicked out of him by a TKA/Doctor or a Carbineer/Doctor. Mostly we becouse no matter what we do, how well we plan our attack, or how good we are at using our class, we CAN'T hit ANYTHING, moreover, even if we do we don't do all that much damage, and our moves don't allow us to do anything special, all we can really do is pray that we do alot of damage to them.

Force Pike
The only thing close to a "Force Pike" is a "lance," wich as the name implys is a LANCE and not force pike at all.
Reference this...
The Imperial Royal Guards wrapped in their flowing red robes and full body armor, and hidden by their masks they are armed with the powerful force pikes. These guards were the Emperor's personal body guards. The force pike is a two-meter-long pole-arm weapon topped with a charged power tip. The weapon weighs barely seven kilograms, which is light for it size. Just like other vibroweapons the force pike is powered by a power cell that generates and energizes an ultrasonic vibration generator and so produces a distinctive low hum. Conductive circuits line the pole's interior and carries the ultrasonic charge to the power tip, which then emits thousands of microscopic vibrations per second. This rapid motion allows the blade to slice effortlessly slice through stone, metal, and flesh. The vibrating action means that even a grazing attack can cause serious damage. The force pike is also equipped with a stun charge that when the tip comes within 4 centimeters of the target it shots the stun. The shock is powerful enough to knock a full-grown Wookiee inconscious.
That crappy weapon that we call a lance in no way reflects this discription, and there fore is simply not the same weapon.
FIX IT!

Well based on that explanation of the force pike, there is no way in hell we're getting it.

Boy, this combat pass sounds great, a chicken in every pot, a roof over every head.
I read your answers and I actually shuddered. I fear for the pistoleer responses where I'm certain we will see the words combat balance pass in every response.
Of course the concerns are combat related, we are talking about a combat class here.
More of PR placating teq. ver. 1.03, or as it is more commonly known " stall em till they leave"

This was a poor set of marketing spew answers, not real answers to real issues.
