Yes I know, but as the Sorcerer can cast any Rune spell, which I am not sure I fully care for.

Yes but he needs go traipsing around looking for runes, where as Sorcery doesn't rely in runes and once the sorceror gets his manipulations skills up and running Rune Magic becomes seriously second rate. I doubt as a player I would invest time and money in acquiring much Rune Magic if I was playing a sorceror.

Of course if you're running the game there's nothing stopping you ruling RM out for sorcerors. Possibly suggesting it is taboo as either "unclean" or worse yet "amateurish" subjecting Rune Magic wielding sorcerors to public ridicule.

Rune Magic is intended to be the 'common' magic type all spellcasters can use.

For the most part Sorcery/Divine Magic/Dragon Mysticism are mutually exclusive. You have to pretty much focus on one type. All of the above practitioners can use Rune Magic though.

Speaking of Draconic Mysticism, quite a few of those spells pull sterling duty as Black Magic spells.

I can work out a review down the road, though it might be awhile. Working a ton of hours right now.

I could answer any questions though.

I read your review at the link you kindly indicated.
Thanks, it's very interesting without unveiling too much.
