I usually play a Cleric or Fighter/Cleric Dual, but this time I have a Bard (Skald kit), and there are lots of minor tweaks to the sub-plots. I think that is really great, and something I have not seen in other RPGs I have played. Am I correct to assume that each main class - Fighter, Cleric, Mage, Rogue - has the sub-plots tweaked

YOu will get a stonghold and maybe some dialogue options. But I better leave this for a bard to answer.

Yes Fljotsdale, every character class has it's own stronghold and additional dialogue just for them. Much like your NPC party make-up influences the dialog events that will take place. It makes BG2 the most replayable game I've ever come across. I've played through almost all of the classes now (got the game in October) and enjoy the Bard's the most. The longest lasting strongholds are Bard, Fighter & Thief ----- did I forget any?

Have fun!

You get some subplot tweaks and dialogue tree variance if you play different races and alignments as well. The first time I played evil I was quite surprised at how more than a few of the quests could be completed nefariously. Like bilqis said, replayability is one of the strongest points of the game.
