[QUOTE="Krelios, post: 2461140, member: 33022"] Okay, here's the question. What spell or spells could a moderate-level caster use to create a Galleon that could fly? I know about the Planar Sails and the Rudder of Wind (or whatever the item from the AE&G is that lets ships fly), but neither of those can be created by anything short of an epic caster. I was thinking about making hundreds of plates of continuous [i]Levitate[/i], but that would take between 1400 and 2000 such plates at 10th level and require the casters to contribute about 56-80 million gold and 2.2-3.4 million xp between them. I also considered expanding a Carpet of Flying (call it a Hull of Flying) to the point that could hold a three masted galleon and cargo (roughly 800 tons), but that was 14 million gold and 560,000xp from a single caster (meaning he'd have to be 34th level). So. Call it an intellectual exercise. The goal is to get a three-masted galleon that weighs roughly 100 tons into the air with a reasonable cargo capacity. Typically, Spanish galleons could carry between 600 and 900 tons, so a total weight of 700-1000 tons would be what I'm looking for. If that seems totally impossible, what about a fantasy zepplin?
