[QUOTE="Gothmog, post: 2743996, member: 317"] It looks like it has every spell from the books cited in it. Some spells have been renamed (mainly ones from the FR stuff) such as Aganazzar's scorcher -> Scorcher and Hand of Torm -> Hand of the Faithful to make the book more general purpose. There is a master list of name changes on p 5-6. For the most part the changes are good and seem to better describe the spell in question. Also, I noticed when I was looking at it more closely two other things last night: #1 On p 3-4 it gives some hints and tips for expanding spell lists for classes in CA and CD. Granted its not much, but it does say what sort of themed spells are appropriate for each class. #2 Each spell also has a descriptive passage much like what monsters do in the MM. While this is useful for some spells, its not too hard to figure out what a spell looks like, sounds like, etc- so I question the utility of this to many DMs, but for new DMs it could be useful.
