If I put in the effort to make myself a handy spell index for all of a character's spells (and make it easily expandable for gaining levels; maybe a notebook with 'spell cards' in it), I think I'd be ready to play a full-progression caster, but otherwise, I just wouldn't want to have to manhandle the PHB whenever I wanted to cast a spell.And besides, magic is, in absolute terms, 'a way for wimps to even the playing field...by cheating,' to me at least. And I'd rather play a physically capable character than somebody who, by all rights, shouldn't be adventuring, were it not for their 'arcane crutch'. But, again, that's just me. I like playing the member of the group that 1. Doesn't die, except maybe to spellcasters or rat-bastard DMs, 2. Kills stuff with sharp and/or heavy things, and 3. Doesn't mind walking for a week to get to the next city.</blockquote>
