I've got a question with how Prestige Classes work in Gestalt games.
I know that
a) You can't take a PrC in both sides of your progression in a given level (without houserules)
b) Dual progression PrC's tend to get banned. Mystic Theurge, Ultimate magus etc.
But what about if you have a PrC, which can advance either side of character's progression?
Say, Cleric (celerity/travel domain) // Wizard. Either class grants entry into Swiftblade. Though swiftblade doesn't advance cleric casting. So assuming I have the requisite feats, I could make a character which was Cleric16//Wizard6/Swift10. OR Cleric 6/Swift10 // Wizard 16.
So my question for the playground, would it be possible to use swiftblade on either side of my build if both sides provide entry to swiftblade?
Say at level 10, Wiz6/Swift4 // Cleric 10 (casting: Wiz8, Cleric10).
And then for the next 6 levels, to put swiftblade on the divine side of my build? So Wiz12/Swift 4 // Cleric 10 / Swift (levels 5-10), giving me the casting of Wiz 14, and Cleric 10, while having all ten levels worth of swiftblade class abilities.
