+2 to spell casting possible?
« on: March 08, 2011, 02:09:23 PM »
Apologies if this is an obvious answer, but i expected to see a rule preventing a +2 bonus to spellcasting and it shocked me  :P


A wizard that's on a special mount (war altar, cauldron of blood etc) can get a special +1 bonus once per game to cast a spell. If you equip that wizard with the Wand of Power, can you use both +1 bonuses in the same turn?


My gut instinct says you can't. But i've read through the rulebook and the FAQ sheet i have, and i can't find any rule that prevents it.

So, is +2 possible?

Okay, it just seemed very un-warmaster like. I had to double check. 

It's almost like seeing a warmaster sword that is +2 attacks  :D (one of the reasons we love WM is the low power of the magic items)

Last three games I played, I fouight against 4, 2 and 2 wizzards. I vaguely recall two spells going off over all three games.
