Alternate Class

From AmtWiki

An Alternate Class refers to Classes which, while not a part of any Official Amtgard Rules of Play versions, were allowed in certain Kingdoms to allow for more variety in both Character Design and Battlegame Tactics.

Examples

Although throughout Amtgard there were many Alternate Classes, not every class was allowed to be played in every Kingdom.

Popular Examples of Alternate Classes include:

New Alt Classes

Some groups, particularly Tetsu Bonsai have created more Alternate Classes. Within Tetsu these classes mostly exists to open up more Persona Arctypes. They use them as regular classes but are aware of the technically illegal status of that action. And regular class levels are a prerequisit to the Alt Classes as they call them. Currently, as of July 2 2008, their Alternate classes are:

Pirate

Onion Knight

Alchemist

Notes

Although individual Kingdoms can no longer add classes to the game, many of the Dor Un Avathar suppliments contain updated rules for these "Alt Classes" which, with proper permisson, can be played as a "Monster" for the day.
