This was really obvious in the last hero game my brother ran b/c the guy that shapechanged was a mega bad*** and in order to challenge him, the battles basically turned into a battle of two-the DM and the shapechanger, and everyone else just window dressing.To the original poster-as long as you tell them upfront, I think it's a great idea because people have to actually role-play through the mechanics to get PrC advantages/specializations, rather than power game to get the advantages.One guy wanted to be a Dwarven Defender in our last game (I think?? the one where you get a stronghold at some point), and well, our DM told him upfront that takes social interaction as well as killing stuff.suzi</blockquote>
