LMFAO.... I have to write this down in my house rule quotes....

That's a good idea, say each time they learn to cast a new level of spell (1 innate cantrip at 1st level, 2 when they can cast 2nd level spells, 3 when they can cast 3rd level spells, maxing o...

Irda,

Why not make the number of 0th-level spells that you can cast be as per the PHB plus the level of the caster.

<t>Irda Ranger,<br/> <br/> It's a nice idea, but brings too much of a "Diablo" feel to the spell caster for me. You can just keep casting spells, just like the warrior can keep swinging. It's a different feel and a different concept on what a Wizard is for sure.<br/> <br/> You'd almost have to nerf ...

<t>Here's an idea I may implement to make bard's more appealing.<br/> <br/> Depending on how you view magic in your campaign, you could give the bard a "CounterSong" not just against "Sonic" magic, but against any magic using Verbal components. The bard can confound a spell caster trying to cast a s...

I just have to say...

Metathiax, this should have been an official C&C rule...

Ya. It may be an oversight, but I'd give the elf thief the same thing an elf ranger gets to MS. Ie.. a +2

Hmm, but technically an Elf can only Move Silently in the Wilderness no?

Ok, the first option and second option make sense.

But what do you mean by Cross-Referencing?

Very useful feedback, I know the saving throw/general check's are an issue with multi-classing.

Does anyone have any input on how the Multi-Classing in Crusader #4 compare to Gary's? Are they quite different? What about Dual-Classing (if any)?

If you're going to add abilities to a monster, you can just use the charts in the M&T book for determining monster experience (since the chart takes the ability of the monster into account). [hope that's not too vague, as I don't have the book in front of me]

<t>I've been working on my own Multi/Dual Classing based off of Gary's work. I like the rules he has, as is, but there are a few things I feel are off. If you have any useful input, I'd appreciate it.<br/> <br/> This is based off Gary's downloadable options and skills.<br/> <br/> When dual classing:...

<t>As noted earlier, Spells and Magic from 2E AD&D would be a great reference. I'm very tempted to use the Spell Point system, and maybe some of the optional spell casting variations (channelling, witchery, alienists, etc.).<br/> <br/> If you want to keep things as simple as possible though, let...
