Reception.
Paul Pettengale reviewed "Sages &amp; Specialists" for "Arcane" magazine, rating it a 6 out of 10 overall. Pettengale concludes: "While the idea behind "Sages and Specialists" is a sound one, and it's now useful to know exactly what tricks these character types can get up to (and at what skill level), it strikes me that the ref is rarely going to use this information - most of it is common sense, besides which, the precise abilities of a sage of three years' experience should be flexible; a whole scenario shouldn't be wrecked because a sage can't be privy to certain information at his current level. So, fine in theory, but in practice I have a few doubts about the usefulness of this addition to the "AD&amp;D" rules set."
