troika

[Steve Ames <steve@ns1.cioe.com>]

Topics from history... does everyone remember the troika?

It goes like this:

			Magic
			 /\
		       /    \
               Skills/--------\Combat

I forget who thought this up, but thats supposed to sum up the
elements of AQ/Jaern (other genres have other troikas). Each 
background has its place:

                        Mages
                          |
              Nomad     Magic     Priests
                         /\
                       /    \
         Auger-Skills/--------\Combat-Warriors

			Marines

This gets a bit esoteric. Priests (as Wright said) are Combat
and Magic. And they are opposite skills so should have the least
to do with anything skill based. Now does this mean they need
combat _SKILLS_? Or does this mean they should have combat
focused magic? The above is definately used to determine MODs.
Take a peak, there's a lot of good insite into what makes AQ
tick... and why somethings are just never going to float :)
