Re: Spells, and what to do with them.... [long]
I'll throw for the elimination of spell levels along with bundling spell effects together, though I know this is not likely something to be whole-cloth implemented in DCC.

Re: Homebrew Spells and Conversions
The reversed forms you present are cool - personally I'd be inclined to allow Break Familiar Bond to be applied to self to get rid of a familiar that had become 'too familiar', but I like the idea of wizards taking shots at other wizards' familiars.

Re: what game is most like the DCC RPG?
Hi! I'd agree with all of the comparisons above (0e, 3e, T&T, Rolemaster), and also throw in a little of Stormbringer (I'm only familiar with 1st edition, but the random chargen & some of the cool magic rules remind me of it). I downloaded the beta and it looks like a neat game, I blogged an...
