[QUOTE="J. Alexander, post: 3991631, member: 28453"] [b]Should have keep my mouth shut[/b] Okay, since i first posted the idea about a gestal,epic campaign i have been flooded with emails etc for more information etc...something i had not planned on researching or developing till much later...so to keep it simple here are my thoughts and your opinions would be greatly appreciated...I love the idea of playing an epic level game but as this party will be small and i will stick to the group size i finally decide upon there will need to be depth as well as breadth for the character.........that is not to say that this one may not wind up with two different groups..but I just dont see epic level characters being able to fill all the necessary roles even given their levels if there are 4 or so in the party... Researching the Gestalt variation, I find them a true headache and dont know if i really want to go that route...so here was my thought.. Going back to the goold old days of AD&D and multiclassed characters do you think it would be feasible to say have the pc divide like 14 or so levels among two clasess and maybe on prestiage class and allowing them to more or less stack like under the old rules.....I am sure there is somthing similar out there on the sight but just to dam lazy to research it.......so hit me back with your thoughts or comments on if it would work or if you think epic or gestalt is the way to go...
