[QUOTE="Artoomis, post: 94050, member: 111"] This will be pretty long, as I'm going to address each of Archer's comments. I'll be updating the WEb site later (today?) based on your comments, Archer. Lot's of good stuff in there - thank you very much for helping, Archer! :):):):) I've put the item number in my answers so that anyone could quote only my answer for comments and we'd be able to put it in context. [B][/B] 3. I didn't know about the Windrider. What book is that in? [B][/B] 4. Tne rules are nowhere near 99.9% clear as witnessed by earlier discussion on this point. The "Best Advice" is against the Sage's ruling because I get to decide what the "Best Advice."
