Size Alteration Magic

[Tetsubo]

I was rather disappointed with the revision of the Enlarge/Reduce spell in 3E. I used
to love in 2E when you could siginificantly alter a craeatures size with this spell. I
understand why they did it (game balance) but I still miss the effect. What level should a
spell be that enlarges or reduces a creatures size by one catagory. Example, from
Medium to Small or Large. And what would be the level progression for a spell that
increased this to two catagories? Example, from Small to Large. Should the second spell
be two levels higher? Three? What about a Mass Version? Four or five levels?

Any thoughts?

Well, polymorph other is 4th level....

Righteous Might is 5th level cleric spell. Increases size by one step (includes all equipment and weapons) and either gives you an 18 str or +4. Don't remember which off the top of my head.
Lasts 1 rnd/lvl.

The nice thing about the +4 from Righteous Might is it's an enlargement bonus, so it will stack with almost anything. It's great for bullrush/tripping.

But Polymorph Other is the best spell for something like this because it's only 4th level and is permanent. Just pick a larger humanoid shape so you can retain your equipment.
