Thanks Mike, this is very much like my thinking on this matter.

Whats your take on using magic to attack? You know, having a flickering blade feat and using it offensively as say a ranged magical attack? I recently played a Helamakt pre gen character at a con and stood on the hillside battering broo with my killer rain feat. I really enjoyed that, and my ability with that was better than my close combat!

My current group seem happy to run up and try and pulverise things, but I wonder if that is my GM'ing? Just thinking aloud really...what do other people do?

I must say my primary inspiration here on the use of Gloranthan Feats is the Gwandor write ups on Wesley Q's site.
