[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 6587501, member: 177"] Oh, and I should bring this back to the original question - what would this do to game balance? Well, how crafty are your players? If you give them the "two magics on the same thing do not stack" situation, they are *going* to start asking why, say, the Aid spell (which magically grants hit points) and a lightning bolt (which magically takes away hit points) should stack, and so on. Players are *very* clever. They will pester and abuse you, if they feel you are being a tad too arbitrary about it. And they have more brains than the GM does. They *will* find cases that do things you don't like. Which is to say, don't screw with them too much, and balance will be fine :) [/QUOTE]
