I allow feats from many many books (I've compiled my own spreadsheet of them), and classes from several. However, my players have, in the entire time we've played 3.5, NEVER taken a non-core class, only 2-3 have taken non-core races, and I've had ONE prestige  class in the entire time we've played.I tend not to use them myself, as DM, just because making up NPCs with abilities I'm not very familiar with bogs down my speed of play; but I don't understand why my PCs won't play them!So, while I have in the end decided to pay E6, it isn't to limit my players; it is because I like the FEEL of the campaign and campaign world.  However, my philosophy  is this: if a PC wants badly enough to play a class or race, I'd think about it and try to work it in. But the Player is obligated to follow whatever restrictions or limits on the background I set. There's only ONE group of monks in my campaign world, and they have ONE philosophy/viewpoint. You're either  OF them, or you've split from them. No other options. Same with the paladin. There are a dozen or more knightly orders that a paladin must choose from.  Don't like it? Don't play a paladin.</blockquote>
