Just thinking on a different tangent....what if a Wizard was allowed to fuel spells with all 3 Attributes?

This would largely solve the "Conan the Wizard" problem as a spell caster wouldn't get a huge benefit from pumping his ST up just to be able to cast more spells. But he'd have to think carefully about using his DX as fuel as this would reduce his future casting odds. Using IQ to fuel spells could reduce the difficulty of the Spells he could use.

Obviously this idea would need some development, but on the face of it has some promise.
