    Re: [Magic System] Vancian Magic Update

    Is there a better way to model interruptable spells then the Extra Phase limitation?

    Perhaps, something that takes into account being ond the defensive so as not to incur an AOO (as in 3.5)?

    Always liked this take on D&D magic, and the new layout looks good.

    I discuss a number of Interruptible Limitations here:

    Spell Restrictions

    But more to your point you could require all Spells to take Concentration.
