Smile its all part of the fun.
Today was not a good day to ask for my input. All the catalytic converters were stolen off the company vans last night and I've spent the day arguing against various points in a monitor's report. My stress level has reached new highs.
Anyway, I hope my comments did not offend. I was really just trying to have a civil discussion of the issues raised. I don't want to do anything to jeopardise the game. As you may have noticed, I've been having great fun with Tylara already.

Later arrival...
I'll be posting shortly... once I get approval from Leif and square away my inventory and final spell selections.
My .02, belatedly but there none-the-less, elves, and grey elves in particular are just set up to be excellent choices for wizard classed characters. Races aren't balanced against a single class... they're balanced across the spectrum of the base classes. We all chose our own races regardless of their strengths and weaknesses to play a character we wanted to. So who cares if the gray elf is front-loaded for a wizard? *shrug*
Imagine our class choices had all been relegated to barbarians... wouldn't the half-orc be front-loaded for that or even a dwarf? If I then chose to be a gnome should the elf be penalized for it?
Again... my .02

Truthfully, I think your words are worth a lot more than the value claimed!Ryfte said:I'll be posting shortly... once I get approval from Leif and square away my inventory and final spell selections.

Where were you when Mowgli was having a crisis?

Even funnier...
if you had allowed races books Leif.
The elf wizard substitution level grants:
+1 spell learned at each level including 1st
+1 additional spell slot of each level just as if you were a specialist but you can use it for any spell and don't actually have to specialize (this takes the place of the specializing ability)
Oh... and they get search added to their class list...
Now THAT really would have ruffled some feathers, eh?

Four vehicles worth. I'm told they can get less than $50 dollars for the converter and pre-converter as scrap. They can get more for them as spare parts. Either way, we'll be out more than a thousand dollars (well insurance will likely cover) and the vans aren't really usable because the engine sensors are confused and they run really rough and the shift points are delayed. Of course getting them fixed right at Christmas is a major hassle too.
People playing thieves in my games are gonna catch hell for a while!
