Ranged weapons would be great. Imagine the power of Empire then... The heavily armored soldiers took the field, forming a solid wall of iron. The Tar Valon guards looked on with trepidation, but were confident that their swords of bright steel would win the day. Suddenly, a volley of a thousand and one arrows flew out from behind the Imperial menace... This is something that has already been talked about. It is indeed very cool, but there lies a problem in the form of game mechanics. The rooms in Galadon may be just a few yards long, mabye even a block. The rooms on Eastern are a few miles long. How do you differentiate between the two? My advice, play a conjurer where magic missles follow an opponent out of the room. Better yet, play the best class in the game, ranger. -Montolio
