I rather like the RQII ones - certainly more than the RQIII ones - but
that's probably distant memories of a rather munchkin Shaman character I
played quite early in my RQ-gaming...

More importantly, I find the RQII shaman rules nicely atmospheric and
"plausible", in that I can "see" how  a starting character could get there,
if you see what I mean. But I haven't had to use the RQIII shaman rules "in
anger" for a quite a while (haven't run or played an RQIII game where
shaman entered play for a number of years), and I seem to recall that the
last time I did I cam away with the feeling I wanted to tweak them back to
more like RQII...

Cheers,
