Patch 1.03 removed the ability to shatter Lieutenants.  Any suggestions where I look to find that control so I can change it back?

I have this funny feeling that it was an engine change for the ranks, but you could try looking in creature_core and the associated header files.

I haven't yet, but it's bundled with Awakenings so either I don't play Awakenings or I find a way around the patch.

Here, here!  Don't nerf the cold spells.  They get too little love in most games and the shatter aspect is a very respectable boon for a mage PC.

Indeed.  I've already modded out the freeze nerfs from patch 1.02 (I didn't write that mod).  I want to mod out these nerfs, as well.

Alright now, you like BG1, I like you. But how the hell did you decided that shattering Lieutenants is a good thing (I don't have an opinion in the matter, I don't have a clue who is what in this game, all seems the same to me)?

I like how it worked before the patch. Shattering Lieutenants was extremely unlikely, so it was a high-risk tactic (the talent you expended to do it was probably going to be wasted), but when it worked you'd have removed a dangerous opponent from the field with little effort. That's high-reward.

High-risk high-reward tactics are fun. I've previously told the story about how I landed a Hold Monster on the Demonknight at the bottom of Durlag's Tower, and thus rendered the encounter trivial, but that Demonknight had 95% magic resistance. There was almost no chance that tactic would work, so when it did it was hugely exciting. Knowing how long the odds are and still beating them is fun. It seems, however, that BioWare would prefer there be less of an element of chance in our combat, and I'm not a fan of that at all.
