Paladin's Aura
« on: November 06, 2016, 08:40:12 PM »
How can I or another player know what a Paladin's aura does without cracking open a rulebook?

Memorize them? Write it down on a reference card? You could just crack open a rule book, you know. The rule books don't just exist for no reason.

I think maybe they should have made the auras actual cards with their effects written on them. Nobody would have mistaken them for regular spells if they were double sided like the aura markers are.

Like every other rule - you remember it or you look it up? How do you know what Bloodthirsty or Grapple does?

I agree they could have been on a card (or made the Paladin star card doublesided, although that's likely much harder), but it's not a big deal.

Not to over-commit myself, but I plan to make a little reminder card people can print off for the Auras, but it's a little ways down my list of tasks. So, I'm not sure when I'll get to it.

Thanks, its good to know

Kinda bummed there wasn't a second Paladin rule card in addition to the art and stats card, though. Mage Wars tends to spread out and put table space at a premium. Siren's Call, Blood Reaper, Avenger, TreeBond, Pet etc can be referenced with great ease, 6 new effects is a little cumbersome without the usual AW streamlining

Attached is a word document with the paladins auras.  it is the perfect size to fit into a sleeve, all you have to do is cut it out.   I just found a sleeve that matched my paladin's, threw a decoy in it and then put this paper over the decoy. works great!
any issues let me know

That's great! I'd planned to do something similar myself, but it's some way down the to do queue!

Thanks a lot!
