Been toying around with the idea of some themed campaigns... holy pilgrim journey, thief mafia style campaign, all aquatic etc...
Most of those are obviously possible if not weird due to things like alignment or water movement rules. The idea that is really the one that is hardest to gauge without actually testing, is the concept of an all wizard party.
For the sake of this idea, lets go with PFS legality for character creation (ignoring the papers needed for things like Ifrit), starting at level 1. We can also assume piazo modules such as society, adventures and adventure paths.
Providing everyone went in knowing what they were doing, and was o.k. with the concept... could someone have a functional party of all wizards for an extended time?
My biggest concerns at the moment is:
1. Blasting: the characters are just going to be mowed down or mow down the enemy in one round.
2. While wizards can fill every role in the party to limited degrees in the fighter-wizard-cleric-rouge set up... they can be lacking in certain aspects at certain levels (how do you have a tank at level 1?)
So is this a fools errand... or would the career students of a wizard academy that got destroyed, wandering around trying to figure out how to survive in the world... be a workable idea?
