In 3rd edition D&D, lightning bolt originates from the casters hand and travels out to its range. this is great and easy to interpret, however it is also a huge departure from earlier editions of the spell.
In earlier editions (IIRC), the caster was able to pick two points within range that the bold would arc between. often this was the caster and some distanat target, but was not required to be.
This made it a great spell fro attacking lines of soldiers or defenders on a wall etc.
Has anyone in their campaigns re-instated the old decription and if so, did they find it a problem?
