Yes but does it need the spells. I mean I see no synergy between the Magus list and the Bloodrager.

I mean light blasting might be good for an opening salvo but not much.

2 Spell Lists (1 4 level Arcane List of Buffs and Light Blasting and 1 6 Level Divine List of Nature Themed Buffs and Trap Spells).
1 New Spell System (that allows every class to utilize the Prepared Spells Known with Spontaneous Casting).
With some heavy tweaking:
a Bloodrager/Berzerker (Alternate Barbarian with the 4 Level Arcane List)
a Hunter/Slayer (Unique Class with the 6 Level Divine Nature List)
Investigator (Alternate Alchemist)
Swashbuckler (Alternate Gunslinger)
Skald (Alternate Bard)
Shaman (Alternate Druid)
Brawler (Alternate Monk)
The Warpriest gets divided into 2 archetypes that stack with Crusader (though not necessarily each other).
Blessing made into something akin to Domains and Inquisitions and open for any class that utilizes those features.

2 Classes dropped in favor of options made from their abilities with 2 being combined into 1. Most get more options opened up to them for the players.

I agree with this whole heartedly. I wish this was how this product had been designed.

My excitement abounds. Slayer (aka Base Class Assassin) and Swashbuckler (ABOUT TIME) are really great concepts that are super fantastic. Shaman fills a long needed niche.

Bloodrager leaves me cold and a name change (non-portmanteau) would be best, I like Ravager.

Warpriest would be better renamed Templar if only to better fit base class naming assumptions.

There's still four archetypes to be announced and I would like to join the lobby for Engineer being among the new classes.

Also I'd like to see the Mystic as a base mystic Theurge option and The Psychic for a new mind magic option.

This all the way!

I'm pretty sure an animal companion cannot be a familiar also (an animal companion must be a "non-magical animal" and when a creature becomes a familiar it becomes magical). Also the eagle/frog/monkey/serpent domains are Sub-domains of the Animal domain so I would not think you could take both as it would be like taking the same domain twice.

If I use the downtime rules to found a Bardic College (p107), Magical Academy (p111), Monastery (p111) or similar organisation that is also described in Inner sea Magic (chapter 3)would I or my party gain access to the benefits of fame described in the that book (such as infirmary access or professors assistant) and how might that interact with the more general fame rules from Ultimate Campaign? How would one gain fame in the organisation as it doesn't make much sense for you to join your own organisation in obscurity and work your way up (especially if you already have a high general fame score)!

I'm struggling to see how the Buildings and organisations rules in downtime and the Reputation and Fame rules in Campaign systems work with previously published rules from The Factions Guide and Innersea Magic? Is anyone planning to use this with those books?
