Kits...is there any?

OK..i've been through some sites about IWD2 and cannot find if there will be any kits, like Kensai, Wizardslayer, Assasin and you know in BG2...

Will there be any kits like those mentioned above in IWD2?

No; the D&D3 ruleset did away with kits in favour of the new skills and feats system. Dungeon Masters who want to introduce specialist classes can do so in their own campaigns using what are called "prestige classes". These include classes like the Loremaster, Bladesinger and Purple Dragon of Cormyr and are mostly intended for NPC use, and because of their specialist nature, you probably won't see them in a CRPG. If you want to have a specialists like a kensai, you should load up your fighter with weapon specialisation, weapon focus and other skills/feats to maximise your effectiveness with a sword.

Well there sort of are "kits" in IWD2. Not for all classes though. For example you can have clerics belonging to different gods, but that would be the same as choosing a clerical domain in NWN. Paladins and monks also have different orders that they can belong to, but all that does is allows them to multiclass to a specific class without loosing the ability to advance in their current class. I think that's it though.
