===Alternate Classes===
+
Through the development of the [[Rulebook Expansions]], several alternate [[classes]] and [[archetypes]] have been introduced to add additional options for persona development and gameplay. Please note that not all kingdoms allow the use of alternate classes (check with your [[Prime Minister]] or [[Guildmaster of Reeves]] before attempting to play these classes). Archetypes are simply directions for heightened roleplay and do not require approval to portray.
These are classes that ''some'' Kingdoms/Parks can choose to recognize. Many of these are actually [[Archetypes]], templates for role-playing the standard classes in interesting ways. While alt classes aren't always allowed, archetypes don't affect game rules and should thus be more widely accepted.

Note: all those in the official lists appear in the Amtgard 7 expansion books and you can find an actual write-up of their abilities there.

Through the development of the Rulebook Expansions, several alternate classes and archetypes have been introduced to add additional options for persona development and gameplay. Please note that not all kingdoms allow the use of alternate classes (check with your Prime Minister or Guildmaster of Reeves before attempting to play these classes). Archetypes are simply directions for heightened roleplay and do not require approval to portray.
