How can I increase mgic levels ? -> link to a thread and also to Zan Magic Items file

What are themes and theyr difference -> link to a thread (I suppose was from Zen) with the starting spells and also link to the quick ref

Yeah that was going to be in it also. Pointing to the thread in the Shrapnel General board with the discusion and the poll.

Of course it would then have to be deleted as soon as thats fixed.

No the Saber Chery thread for newbies, which is stickied, has links to most of the downloadable documentations that Users have done. This one isnt meant to replace that one.

This one is mostly so that instead of posting a question twice it will be a quick index to threads here that have extensive discussion/answers already. If there is a new variation they can post it in that thread automatically bumping it up. Of course for many questions, going to the thread will also show them links to some of the other documentations.

Well the link actually jumps back to about page 8 where the question was still getting answered.

Well, it now seems to be tackling the question of the nature of truth, and can you 'know' something that is false, which isn't exactly semantics even if it isn't original either.

So maybe just "flame roasted (philosophical) chestnuts" - if "chestnut" in this context isn't too idiomatic for an international forum.

And yes, I know I am guilty. I'm sowwwy.

Links to suggested startegies ( ) for the different nations would be a very welcome addition to the list.

I had debated that but Im not sure yet if its best to pick one and have the conversation continually grow in that one, or have multiple answers linking to multiple threads.
