then play SCS or tactics remix BG with house rules for extra challenge
Even low level combat can be very fun

Pic is dispel and countermagic table for SCS, you wont touch most mages without pealing them like an onion from defenses and various sequencers and contingencies first. No RPG combat system felt even half as fun to play as BG2 for me.

maybe play the game first my dude, there are multiple type of defense defenses and fighting mage in SCS is like peeling an onion
