I've been thinking about spell's casting time. The current rules give you automatic casting time reductions as you increase your skill. I'm thinking of making it voluntary instead, and use the rules for Haste given on p. B346. So hurrying a spell gives a penalty of -1 per 10% less time taken. Maximum time reduction is 90 of time, for a -9 penalty. Ceremonial magic cannot be hastened in this way.

What do you think?
