In this clip, James says there's a Warlord class. What is the Warlord?

I hope Fighter and Paladin are only the same in name. There has been mention that the Alignment system will be re-worked and it won't have any direct impact on the game rules. So... can we assume that the Paladin will no longer have to be LG?

Warlord isn't a class. It's one of the new roles, such as the striker, defender, etc...

I'm interested in how the character customization will work and how that will interface with the "Race Levels". The article about Fighters and their weapons has me cornered about the "all weapons expert." Specialized fighting styles are nice but also having track for generalist would go a long way.
I'm also interested how Multi-Classing will be addressed during development for balance and feasibility. Often Multi-classed characters are far weaker then their single classed counterparts at low levels. I imagine this will be helped with the new focus on abilities that can be used At Will, Per Encounter, and Per Day. What I am most concerned about is how any new Skill system will work with Multi-Classed characters. If there aren't ranks then how does say a Rogue/Wizard look for skill layout. Will it depend on which class the Player took first or will the best class be used. Will the individual level of each class have an impact?
Multi-classing was the way to get certain character concepts made and viable. I really hope there will still be good reasons to multi-class as well as play a single class 1-30.

Warlord is a class seen on the Character creation vid and specifically mentioned in in of the GRZ interviews.

There was mention of rangers also. I can't remember where, but they were saying that rangers and rogues would have similar combat roles (laying down massive attacks on one target) and will differ outside of combat. Hopefully this also means that rogues will have better combat abilities like rangers. I'm hoping there's the means of creating a Scout from Complete Adventurer. Goblin scouts in particular are both great characters to play and clever adversaries.

It's been mentioned that the ranger "killed the scout and took his stuff". Which is fine by me; the scout was never more than a ranger without magic flavorwise anyway.

What is the Warlord? Probably the class that killed the marshal and took his stuff. Possibly the bard as well.

I have a feeling that the Warlord is an improved Marshal.
