    Here's another BGII: Throne of Bhaal review, this time from GamesFirst where the expansion receives 4 out of 5 stars. Take a look at some of the new abilities available:

    Probably the most important aspect of TOB is the high levels your characters can achieve. BG II experience capped out around 2.5 million. TOB lets you go up to 8. That translates into level 40 for some classes. As the Dungeons and Dragons rules don’t provide many spells or abilities after level 18, Black Isle has added a host of new goodies to make those levels worth it. Fighters get Critical Strike, making every hit a critical, Whirlwind attack, giving them 10 attacks for one round, and Deathblow, a massive hit that kills anyone 8th level or below. Mages get new spells like Dragon’s Breath and Wish. Clerics can summon Devas and tougher elementals, while Rogues can set meaner traps and gain the ability to scribe scrolls.
