I tried looking this up on the forum but i didn't find anything...

my question is : if i equip the warlord with a ring of command, which discounts command spells by 1 mana , do i get to make his battle orders for free ?

PS :  His battle orders are considered to be quick spells, arent't they ? So he will have to spend one action for this ?

these forums sure help me to finetune my game...i learned quite a lot the past couple of days !

thx !

PS : i'm working on a priest build (holy fire) and will be posting it asap to look for advice from ya all...

Could anyone be starting to make recordings of these tournaments ? I would love to see match coverage on YouTube ! Just like the ones you can see from magic the gathering....i can already imagine a pro tour mage wars, or a mage wars grand prix being aired live on twitch !

so..the enchantment transfusion resolves before the dispel ? cool !

@ ACG : i think i get it now...this could be 2 zones away from the caster, being a teleport of 4 zones in total...i'll leave it with that...sorry for being annoying...

thx to ya all !

maybe we'll meet in the arena !

The spell text says:

Target creature is Teleported to the target zone.
X = 3 mana per zone moved away from its current zone.


yeah , but the thing is : can the creature be teleported to a target zone beyond 2 zones from his current zone ? After paying the necessary mana, and checking Los...

i just had a game of MW on OCTGN yesterday, and apparently my playgroup and i have been making some errors when playing some spells, related to range.

1) teleport : is it correct that you can not teleport further than 2 zones ? Except when you teleport another object from 2 zones away, to 2 zones further (so here 4 in total)
2) battleforge : is it correct to say that in order to get equipment on your mage from forge, you always have to be within 0-1 zones from forge ? We used to equip our mages all over the arena, with the forge in our starting corner of the arena...
3)lair : if the range 0-1 on forge is the range for it to cast equipment, is it also true for lair, that it can cast creatures in its own zone as well as one zone away ?

So the range on top of a spell is not only the range to cast the card itself - mage can cast "lair" one zone away - but it is also the range of the card itself to cast its own magic ?

Thx for helping, because this will rock the way we used to play mage wars !

[/spellbook]

there's 121 points, because SBB does not yet have the promo cards. So what i really have is a one hurl rock and one hurl boulder, and not two boulders...

What i tried to do here is to make a build with which i can pin down my opponent with spiked pit/stumble/tanglevine/knockdown and then afterwards bash him with my Golem.  I would like to do this by using teleport on my mage wand, and getting the opposing mage closer to my golem.  Huginn is in there to cast "charge" spells (4) on the golem or to pump him with battlefury.  Gorgon Archer gives me defense against creatures in the sky, or makes extra ranged attacks against the mage (pumped with hawkeye). I think the idea and the spells are ok here, but i find it not so easy to get the combo work.  I think it is important to know the order  in which you should build this up...

anyone's got tips or experience with this kind of build ? thanks in advance !
