Does anyone know of a convenient list or index of the variant BD&D
classes published in the GAZ and PC series? TIA!

Give me a day or two. Gives me an excuse to compile one, which I've been
meaning to do anyway.

One of my hard drives - though not the one with the relevant stuff on it
- has decided to perform a self-lobotomy. My first priority is fixing
that, but once that's dealt with, I'll dig out my GAZes (I think I have
all of them, some in dead-tree and some in PDF) and PCs (may be missing
one of those!) and have a go.

That's great - thanks a bundle!

The only MIA ones I picked up on are the Forester (wannabe elf human -
virtually a human ranger with elven overtones), and Rake
("non-thief-thief") from DotE. Other than that, just what I needed -
thanks again

Oh, right. I'd planned to include DotE but for some reason ended up
skipping it.

I should mention that this product also includes a split-class type of
option for spellcasters (Wicca/Wokani or yet another type of Shaman),
similar to and probably the inspiration for PC1.
