I think the PHB races would be allowed, too, wouldn't they? (just for the purpose of completeness) Human: no bonuses Half-Orc: no bonuses Just came to my mind: humans get an extra feat at 1st level, does that count as a "racial bonus feat"? I doubt it somehow...

Maze requires the target to make an INT check (DC20) each round to escape, or wait until 10 minutes have passed. Plus, SR applies :) The Mind Blank / Discern Location - conflict is finally resolved: Mind Blank is more powerful :)

Flame Arrow now simply gives the flaming property to projectiles (+1d6), so no unlimited fiery bolts anymore... :( but the duration is up to 10 min / lvl Forcecage now requires the material component at the time of casting, not during preparation of the spell. So finally sorcerers can cast it...

It's in the D&D MainFAQ:

IIRC, the "don't-throw-it-back"-reason was only one of two, the other was the "Oops-I-got-a-bent-Javelin-in-my-Shield-and-can't-use-it-anymore"-reason. That's what the pilum was designed for: to overcome the feared greek phalanx, a heavy infantry with mighty tower shields. The romans would throw...

When you are engaged in naval combats, some Wall spells directly cast before the enemy ship are surprisingly effective. For example, a Wall of Fire should get rid of those nasty sails (and posiibly some sailors). Or imagine a galley in full speed, crashing against a Wall of Force . Summoned...
