[QUOTE="jberto, post: 3147733, member: 46377"] I am really eager to add EOM to our D20 fantasy campaign, but I have a list of issues. Please help provide clarification or suggest proven house rules. [B]1. Charm Enhancements - Increase Threshold (1 MP). [/B] Is this enhancement not redundant, why not just pump more MP into the HD Threshold to begin with? Example from EOM: [I]"For each 1 MP you spend on this enhancement, increase the HD Threshold of the spell by 1. So if you cast a Charm Humanoid 7/Gen 1 spell (normally HD Threshold 14), and spend 7 MP to increase the threshold, the total HD Threshold is 21 instead of 14."[/I] So this above spell would be Charm Humanoid 14/Gen1, which would have a HD threshold of 32, not 21? [B]2. Create Death - Enduring Object.[/B] What do it mean by "create object is combined with some something unliving". It seems that this could be potential exploited by PCs.

Table 3.24 states that a 3MP spell would provide a +12 bonus. Shouldn't this example have a "+12" and then a "+24"? Please clarify. [B]5. Transforming Objects.[/B] Is it true that only a Transform Earth 0 can tranform a 5'x5' area of stone (similar to a weak Stone Shape).
