Oops, sent this to your work address:
Have a look at p108, "Concentrating Magic Use," at the
paragraph that starts "theism" in italics. You'll see
that it bans the use of everything EXCEPT affinties
and feats, saying:
"He retains all his affinities and feats, from any
source."
So, concentrate on theism and you can keep your common
magic feats.
Moving on, there's a paragraph about the costs of
concentration. The last sentence in that is:
"Additionally, any common magic magic abilities
retained can be used as active abilities, not just
augmentations."
Hope that clarifies that I'm not mad! I'd never
noticed the "learn a subcult feat" thing on page 120
that you and Jane pointed out, so it happens to us
all. Anyway, in a high level campaign I doubt there's
much common magic floating around!
Cheers,
Ash
To reiterate: If you concentrate on theistic magic...
"He retains all his affinities and feats, from any
source."
