    Cutcenes: From what I've seen, most cut-scenes people will need to do is covered with the regular scripting language. If I understand it correctly (I might not), you can script a PC to no longer receive commands from the player and basically play out your cut-scene as is required, not unlike the way we did in BG2.

    As far as camera control is concerned, I simply don't know. I suspect there may not be very many options for scripting camera control at all. That's the only possible hitch that I can see, that you may not be able to 'detatch' the camera from the PC's and focus it somewhere else for your cut-scene.

    But again, this is only my current impression and may not be the case... this may be changing even as I speak. Once we have definite word on what control you will have, we will all know, and this is why nothing's been added on the point to date. (Yes, we know you want to know about everything NOW but everything ain't done, dammit.

    Shield spell: Since there is no cover bonus per se, the Shield spell can't be implemented properly. The 1st level spell for raising a mage's AC is Mage Armor.

    Keep in mind that we had to come up with most of our spell list (as in the spells we wanted to implement... of course we can always change the details of those spells later) during a time when there wasn't even a 3rd edition spell list available for us to look at, never mind an errata. How's that for crazy?
