Q1.
I was just reading the Craft skill to check the Craft(Alchemy) specifics. It states in the little table that you need to be a spellcaster to create Alchemical items (Alchemist's Fire, Sunrod, etc).
Nowhere are the "components" of such items listed, but I would assume that spells are required, otherwise why bother with the whole spellcaster required business.
In addition does this mean I could have a character that cannot cast spells but is a spellcaster such as a Ranger or a Paladin, but can Craft(Alchemy)?
Anyone have any ideas on this rule? Other than house ruling that Alchemists do not need spell casting ability, why is this restriction there?
Q2.
Are affiliations in the PHB2 the same as Organisations in the Complete books? In essence do they behave the same etc?
TIA,
D
