I agree with the less levels on the skill system... but i like the variety of the skills in BD.
As for the dark elves... most books picture the dark-elve cities, as cities of dark marble and onyx (where dwarves, prefer lighter stone), with domed temple roofs and exquisite houses (a house is not considered mere living quaters, but rather a "clan house" with 30 - 40 members in the household, excluding the servants and soldiers... for the purpose of a game, i doubt that all the members will be present, but it should still be given as a grande structure, rather than a common house ) There are training academies of fighting, wizzardry, and temples for priestesses - the females rule the dark elves, not the males. Dwarves on the other hand, is more known for their practical and solid structures, square shapes etc. Dark elves build their cities with lots of magic, rahter than hard work...
I think it should be possible to instead of disguising armour, to have a disguise spell, where a dark-elf can pass for a normal elf/human/dwarve etc, and vise-versa
dark elves should also have the native ability of back-stabbing and sneaking, since their entire existence depends on that in their cities.
I like damian... as long as all the death knights have his sense of humour <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
