Which lead to my wondering...What if in E6 instead of a new feat advancement was gained by adding a Gestalt level? So a 6th level Fighter E6g character might advance to become a Fighter 6/Wizard 1. Effectively a 1st level Fighter/Wizard Gestalt character with 5 levels of Fighter tacked on.The upside would be a smoother form of gestalting, and expanded character options for E6 characters, including, perhaps, access to more than one level of a prestige class. The primary thing to pay attention to is that spell casting should not progress beyond 6th level no matter how many caster level progressions your prestige class might give you. The downside of course would be book-keeping. It would be highly desirable to track each level of a characters advancement in this set-up. A simple spread sheet would make things easier to see. Any thoughts? Too much trouble for too little gain?</blockquote>
