Do you let your clerics have all the spells?

[QUOTE="Olaf the Stout, post: 3037201, member: 13703"] I go with the rule that if a cleric wants to add a spell that is not in the PHB he has to permanently give up a PHB spell of the same level. If the cleric wants to cast a spell from the Spell Compendium then he has to give up a spell for it. Another option that I am currently toying with introducing is that the cleric has to do some sort of holy quest or task for his god in order to get access to non-PHB spells. I thought of using this option because one of my players wants a few non-PHB spells but doesn't like the idea of giving up other spells for them. I think that either option is reasonable. What I don't think is reasonable is that clerics can magically cast all the new spells that have come out in the latest sourcebook. Each new books gives them more and more flexibility, and with that more power. I think they are one of the strongest Core class going around already without giving them more and more spells to choose from. Olaf the Stout [/QUOTE]
