[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 7626598, member: 29398"] Restrictions: Druids/Nature Clerics using metal armour: we allowed it up to ring mail but nothing heavier. No idea what the rationale was - maybe because ring was the same base AC as studded? I know we've allowed them to use metal weapons for ages. Clerics using edged weapons: absolutely yes for War Clerics, otherwise yes only if the deity has a known association with that weapon e.g. Corellon and longswords - Corellon Clerics can and must take longsword as a proficiency but that's the only edged weapon they can use. Monks using vials of oil: I never knew about this one but had it ever come up I'm sure I would have allowed it as I can't see any good reason not to. Paladins, however, would be banned from using vials of oil as such is not chivalrous. I've still got a copy (or 2?) of UA in quite decent shape, though I'm not sure which printing they are. As for the contents: there's some overpowered crap, there's some very good and useful stuff, and there's some garbage. The hard part - which fortunately only had to be done once - is going through and sorting out the good stuff, tweaking things in order to salvage what can be salvaged from the marginally bad stuff, and then producing the relevant houserule documents.
