I agree emphatically with this, despite the fact that you don't want to hear
it.  Not all warriors can be run successfully in AD, especially when they
had stat trains.

You might want to try Home Guard as soon as you can.  Supposedly, it's a lot
of fun.  I think that fun may be all you get out of this guy.  He's going to
get stomped in regular AD.  Period.
