That sword would be OP as you currently have it. It would need to be more expensive (mana + spellpoints) and have higher upkeep at least.

Oh I know. I didn't mean it had to be exactly as shown. Just something similar to it so the Warlord has a way of Dispeling enchantments without having to have Dispels taking up so many spellbook points. I know it's too powerful as it currently sits, sorry for the confusion.

Actually, with all of the "pay +X mana" from the new set, Mana Prism might become more common in the meta...

That seems probable. Luckily conquer seems to answer mana prism pretty well.

I didnt believe it, that i am saying this buuuuuut it would be fair enough, that every incantation or enchantement would be +2 more mana to pay. There should be no diference, from which mage a spell is cast. Spell is a spell.

But right now, dwarf warlord will be a "mage" which should be feared!

My thoughts are also reaching paladin, holy/war level 1 mage... :)

Unless Paladins are trained in War 2, they won't be able to use Harshforge Plate.

Speaking of rarely used cards, [mwcard=FWI07]Repulse[/mwcard] might become useful for Conquer and in Domination mode.

Edit: Changed from Force Wave to Repulse which was the spell I was originally thinking of....

That's a nice shiny piece of armor there! I like it.

I'll note though it's not unbeatable, a Corrosive Orchid in my view would still have no issues destroying it.

Exactly! ;)

I was thinking about corrosive orchid but Armor Ward and Rune from Rune Smithing could be still a big problem.

Orchid 7 mana for casting + 8 mana for her "dissolve" + 2 mana for runesmithing and +4 from armor ward.

Thats a huge amount of mana just for destroing a level 2 equipment and Orchid have to actually hit him. Reflex boots, Dwarf with intercept could be another obstacle.

I will not get that dwarf naked no matter what. Until legendardy "Naked dwarf female holding two-handed beer mug" creature will not be created, chances are low. :)
