Just why the bard class can pick spells but not cast them at several points during their development, I'll never know.
I have goofed with that, and it's a charisma thing. If the char's charisma is higher than the spell lvl, they can cast the spells. I think it's some kind of bug, as if you can learn the spell, you should be able to cast it, but that is not the case with bards. They get the short end of the stick for epic spells as well, can't cast lvl 9 spells. Thanks for the charts, but I had hoped that they got spells later than lvl 20. Guess not. Now I know why I'd never bothered with epic bards before. While the bard song does get to be quite good, epic spells would be nice...
