:Hi,
:
:I will restart a campaign that has been on hiatus for over a year due
:other obligations (read children). Third edition rules will be used
:and characters have been converted. Altough I have not finished
:reading all chapters, I didn't find any reference to grounding
:physical area spells through a focus or an astraly perceiving or
:projecting mage (or a dual natured being).

Correct. There are in fact rules that (indirectoy) prohibit it. While
astrally projecting, you can only cast mana spells- since SR2 grounding
required physical spells, its gone right there. SR3 further stipulates that
spellcasters can only affect targets present on the same plane as they are.

:May be I am jumping the gun but i would like to know if this rule has
:been changed in SR3. By the way, is there a list somewhere of the
:important changes betwwen SRII and SR3?
:
:Thanks
