Is it possible to export characters from BG2:SOA into Icewind Dale? I've kinda grown fond of my character and would like to keep using him if possible.
Also, any suggestions for putting together a Lord of the Rings party.

NO, you can't transfer characters back and forth between BG2 and IWD.

The only transferring you can do is to BG2 from BG1.

I never understood why they didn't implement importation of BG2 characters into IWD. I mean, it's the exact same engine, and there is really no logical reason why they could not have made it so. if game balance is a concern, well, who cares?? it would have been a lot better to at least HAVE the option of importing a high-level BG2 guy into the game than not have the option at all. go figure.

I agree, but the kits and classes don't match on a one to one basis. You can always simulate levels (within limits), stats and possibly some kit abilities with a character editor; but the tenth level spells and special abilties are probably no doable except with a major effort.

Don't the two stories take place at completely different times?
