[QUOTE="Scion, post: 2310356, member: 5777"] yep, even psions, given transparency is the default condition. Personally, I dont care about counterspelling either way. I have never seen it used. But, for completeness, what logic chain do you go through to say that psionics cannot be countered useing dispel magic? Cure light wounds does not appear on the psion/psychic warrior/wilder list. Haste does not appear.. Heal/harm.. Silent image.. Or a couple of hundred other spells Your point? There are checks and balances all over, you have even shown some yourself before. Overstating to that degree wont help ;) Since it 'is' a magic system stylistically and since it has been designed to fit and since I have seen no problems in any games I have been in nor heard any real problems other than asthetics (which are too campaign dependent to be important, the color green might not fit into a given campaign after all) I'd have to say that isnt true. It fits in fine, it isnt even majorly different than the other versions of magic. It is just as different from arcane as arcane and divine are different sure, but that is a good thing, that way they arent all exactly the same. Sure they do, some work slightly better, some slightly worse. There are a couple of broken ones for each system which still need to be worked out (3.75? 4.0? 10.9?) but that is only a matter of time and work. [/QUOTE]
