Wuldn't holiness be taken into account by the H2 cost similar to the bonus abilities given to other magical disciplines?
That is my contention.

Illwinter's site says (in general) it is a 50% increase. Look at Pythium's Theurg however:
Actually, Illwinter's site says that it is a 50% increase for units. It does not state, one way or the other, what it is for commanders.

Quote:
The Theurg costs 150gp/1rp and has magic paths of A, W, S2, H3. Ordering the paths from highest to lowest we get:
Basic Commander Price: 30gp
S2: 1st Path, level 2 = +90gp
W: 2nd Path, level 1 = +20gp
A: 3rd Path, level 1 = +10gp
-----
150gp
But wait a minute!
H3: Holy Priest = +50gp
Yes, this is perfectly accurate. The Theurg should cost, without any extra cost for being Sacred, 200g, by Illwinter's standards. Such things as this prompted my analysis. Using my methods, the Theurg comes out to about 180g (basically, his 'frame' is worth quite a bit less than 30g).

Quote:
So the Arch Theurg (according to Illwinter's scheme) gets H3 for free--not including the 50% sacred cost increase.



Arch Theurg, or Theurg? If you're referring to Theurg... yeah, he's HHH and Sacred for free.
