Spell burn is so bad that having 1 or 2 points more in Strength really doesn't translate to a greatly increased capacity for spellcasting. I use (and Grim Tales recommends) point buy or the elite array, and it just doesn't make any sense to sacrifice any one of a number of other important attributes for the ability to cast, perhaps, one more spell.When you set out to create a spellcaster in GT, you simply accept that casting spells is something you do under the direst circumstances. Pimping your Strength during character creation is... well, let us instead say that the instinct to change this function of the design is a GM's knee-jerk reaction (however justifiably so it may seem to cry, "Spellcasting is tied to Strength! All wizards will be Conan!"), and not really based on a rational analysis of the mechanics at all.Wulf</blockquote>
