Speech options not matching Personality tags?
While it was an interesting idea, the tag-personality system led to a lot of weird and inconsistent characterization. I remember having a Shadowcaster Rogue with the Academic background look at an ancient spellbook and asking why they should care, which was very odd. It is also very apparent right from the get-go that it will be inconsistent, seeing as the characters awkwardly swap positions around the table to match their assigned role at different points...

Solasta best D&D simulator
While I do like Solasta, I do think there is a major weakness in the system if we're talking about using it as a D&D simulator. It's a dungeon crawler using D&D 5th Edition mechanics, but it doesn't seem to capture anything else about the tabletop experience. There is nothing wrong with this, dungeon crawling is fun, but a D&D simulator? I would find a campaign as narratively limited as Solasta to be a great...

(SUGGESTION] Feature In Game - "Create Custom Class"
They sort of adressed a major problem with this idea when they responded to questions about multiclassing in their stream a while back; the system wasn't designed with it in mind, so making different abilities work together will be a lot of work. Even if they could fix up a system quickly, the QA testing would take a lot of time and possibly require significant changes to the code to make sure abilities work together...

Any thoughts on a well rounded party?
For sure. Level 11 will raise the stock of fighters considerably. might have to give spellblade a whirl after all… It's too bad the Battlemaster isn't the subclass in the SRD, because they would make Fighters much more appealing prior to lvl 11 too. Champions are kinda lame and Mountaineers, while powerful, are stuck as strength based shield builds.

If you want to live the artillery dream, it seems like Ranger (or even Fighter) would be a superior choice for you over Paladin. Longbows with flaming arrows, Archery fighting style. Assuming point buy or standard array, by making them Sylvan Elves and take the Uncanny Accuracy feat at 4, they’ll be 18 DEX and ignore all but full cover. If you want heavily armored artillery and don’t care about the Ranger utility/stealth, Sylvan Elf...
