Nice title there - I think you will get more votes just from the title alone!

Guess you never heard of subjective polling...

Edited - A little context. We got in to this conversation where I felt context of the word class was relevant. Which then morphed in to 10 vs 12. Now you get to weigh in on it.

Oh this could have multiple answers I believe in TD terminology there are 12. However 4 of those are pairs of the same class with different races. So 10 is also right. Either way I'm going to enjoy reading this thread lol.

There are 10 Character Classes. 2 of those classes have 2 different Race options.

Helping my cause...

From the 2018 PHB...

"In very general terms, the twelve character classes can be broken down into two basic types: physical combat and spellcaster."

Ed

I think to do this properly you need to setup a table outside of the true dungeon area at Gameholecon with a giant sign saying "There are only 10 classes in true dungeon, change my mind." or "Ed wrong, change my mind." Like the change my mind meme.

This is the right answer.

Having a Fighter and a Dwarf Fighter doesn't make 2 classes. There are 12 character cards but 10 classes.

From the How to Play-Character Classes Page:

Class Skill Tests
Bard: Memory test where a group of symbols (and their names) should be memorized.
Barbarian: Same as the fighter.
Cleric: Memory test where a group of prayer beads (and their names) should be memorized.
Druid: Memory test where a group of leaves (and their names) should be memorized.
Fighter: Hand and eye coordination test as a sliding counter must be slid into a certain area.
Monk: Similar to the fighter, but the monk must slide two counters in rapid succession.
Paladin: Same as the fighter.
Ranger: Similar to the fighter, but the ranger must slide two counters simultaneously.
Rogue: Dexterity tests that involve nerves and a steady hand as a metal stylus is manipulated though an “Operation game” type device.
Wizard: Memory test where a diagram of planes of existences should be memorized.


We added two new Characters this year for a total of 12 characters. Notice is says characters not classes.


Though I admit on the Character Classes Card Page it does say.
Character Class Cards

There are 12 different classes to choose from in True Dungeon,

Another point for Ed, both the different Wizard and Fighter characters have unique subclasses. I would say from a True Dungeon on its own standpoint, they can loosely be defined as 12 classes since the other 8 classes are all locked in to human race. But based on its origins in Dungeons & Dragons, I will stick with my original thought of 10 with 2 racial options.

Token Development must be wrapping up. We're looking for new things to argue about

Actually it springs from token development.

If there are 12 Classes then Human Fighter and Dwarf Fighter should get their own Legendaries eventually. If there are only 10 then there should just be a Fighter Legendary. So related to tokens..... Also both of us being pig-headed like we are.

I told Ed:
"I think it is probably one of those things that Jeff goes back and forth on because it doesn't matter to him.
If you asked him if both wizards were the same class or diffrent he would say same. But if you asked how many classes are there he would say 12....lol."

I would add that this is why we did a Podcast
