[QUOTE="Tharen the Damned, post: 2309346, member: 17091"] and The changes in the Magic System are simple and elegant. There are no Spell Slots any more. A Spellcaster theoretically could cast Spells all day. But of course there is a limiting Drawback. Also casting generally takes longer than one standard action. And there is no such thing as a guaranteed successfull casting of each spell. There is allways potential for desaster. A fledgling Spellcaster can theoretically cast a high level Spell (eg. a 1st lvl. Mage could cast Fireball) but the resulting backlash is so severe, that this is only fit as some last stand action. And lst but not least GR took care of the different strengths of Mana in the Books. From high Mana during the Witch-Wars to relatively low Mana in the Irrune time. I loathe generic prestige classes that come with every D20 book. For me a prestige Class is something campaign or setting specific and takes care of special features that the Core Classes can not simulate good enough. But you do not need the PRCs to play TW, they just enrich the setting! [/QUOTE]
