[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 3454521, member: 29398"] Spell Resistance (or Magic Resistance) is fine except when everything has it, then it's overkill. Dispel Magic needs to be one of those spells you only cast if you have to...make it a big area of effect (get rid of targetted version) so you risk hitting your own people with it as well as the enemy. Anti-magic or Null Magic needs to probably be used a bit more often, along with true Disenchant effects. Counterspell: I solved this by making Counterspell itself a spell (yes, even in a 1e setting)! MU-2, casting time immediate, counters spell in process of being cast. Casting time of target spell must be longer than that of Counterspell...I put this in to avoid Counterspell wars and M:tG-like spell stacks. I forget right now what range etc. I gave it... One of the better ideas 3e provided. :) Lanefan [/QUOTE]
