The problem with this is that plenty of people still play Crossfire solo, so
it is not possible to have a whole party. Maybe we should have classes ,for
example, like Wizards and Mages where Wizards are better at spellcasting, but
cannot wear metal armour, and Mages are like our current Wizards and Mages. 
Repeat for all classes, so you get a full set of classes which are suited for 
a party setup and a full set of classes which you can use on their own.
