Hey again! Some more of my homebrew...
Now; I made this class before the 4E monk was actually released, but I was wondering what you peeps would think of it, and if you would like to use it (and, of course, if you would like to criticise it).
Me, personally, I kind of prefer the class I made to the one that was published; it's more flexible, to my mind, and it feels more.. Natural, to me.
So please, enjoy, and criticize honestly!
