Just how stat-and-feat-based is this going to be, RD? Or is this all just general stuff to check approximate ability scores and statistics?

I personally vote for level 2. But I know all your prestige people will want 3, and, so will other people.

Right.

We'd have to recalculate how much money we had too.

Unless there is some rule I am missing, I could already be prestige assassin (With a kill in background) at level 2.

I vote for level 2, since everyone but Andy has done level 2, so why make everyone work because of him?

If that's the way it is, I will personally update each person's character sheets, outside of them picking their next feat.

because not everyone is IHMN? Because some of us might also have reason to choose a slightly higher level? Because not everyone is so willing to force a comrade-in-arms to weaken a character he worked hard on?

You asked "why", and I have answered.

DB, one person worked hard on one higher leveled character. At least 4 people have worked hard on 4 weaker leveled characters (Pheonix did 1.5).

Edit - Anyway, level 2 seems better. For the first D&D RP, might as well start low.

I'd like to stick with Level 2. In most low-levelled campaigns I've been through, Level 2 was the great starting point, as it marked a lot more power than 1. Level 3, I think, is sorta superfluous as a starting point.

but at level 2, our spellcasters be weakened...*realizes what he's saying*

I'll be some kind of melee class at that point...clerics won't be able to smack me with their morningstars and get away with it...it's NINJA TIME!!!

I abstain from the voting process.

Can someone help me doublecheck the price formula for wands?

The artificer indeed seems to be an interesting class. However:

1] A horrible fighter (neither fighter or caster. A very SLOW enchanter.)
2] Needs lots of gold (never something good to rely on)
3] Works well to benefit only if with, say, allied magical weapons (Retain Essence is VERY sexy. But still costly. See number 2.)
4] I don't think the concept fits well into a FR setting.

So I think I'll have to pass. I'd expect the Artificer to produce mostly only scrolls anyway, and I might as well Pal5/Cleric5/DwarvenDefender10 to get Craft Magical Arms (though I really wanted those 2 fighter levels!)

EDIT: The DMG's Page 236 states that a CLW wand has a market price of 750 GP, and assuming that's the full 50 charges, it is indeed correct. You can buy 18 charges for 270, if RD allows.
