[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 2770525, member: 1465"] I won't likely buy the SC, so I'm not really bothered. However I don't see a problem with using the names or not. It's true that it's slightly more flavorful to use named spells, but it's not a big deal. It's obvious that they wanted this book to be very setting-free. What instead I think it's a bad decision is to arbitrarily change certain spell names entirely. Air Bubble -> Deep Breath Banebow -> Foe Bane Bridge of Sound -> Dark Way Chameleon -> Camouflage Curse of Petty Failing -> Curse of Ill Fortune (and MANY more in the preview) What in the name of God was the purpose of this change? Who decided that the new name was "better" than the old one? Why causing an unnecessary problem for example if you are still using older books or adventures? This is a compendium right? They said that they were going to fix certain spells (I don't know how many, but I'd certainly hope A FEW, not even close to another revision...), but changing names is completely unnecessary and confusing.
