Sorcerous Ruses

Arcane Journal: The March of Chaos

Rulebook

When an enemy Wizard casts a spell, a Wizard may use this Ruse instead of attempting a Wizardly dispel. If they do so, both Wizards roll a D6. The Wizard using this Ruse adds their Level of Wizardry to their roll, whilst the enemy Wizard adds their Toughness: If the enemy Wizard's result is higher, the Ruse has failed and the spell is cast. If the result is a draw, the Ruse was partially successful and the spell is dispelled. If this Wizard's result is higher, the Ruse has been a success. The spell is dispelled and the enemy Wizard loses a single Wound. This Wound cannot be recovered by a Regeneration save.

The Warhammer world is an intrinsically magical place. In battle, magic is a force as real and potent as a sword blade, its use limited only by the imagination and skill of the Wizard that wields it. Magic can be a subtle force, infusing allies with strength and valour, or enemies with frailty and dread. More commonly, however, Wizards unshackle the raw power that lies at the heart of magic's chaotic nature, summoning hungry firestorms or devastating bolts of eldritch power. It is therefore only right that magic should form a core part of the game of Warhammer: the Old World as well. Wizards are able to cast spells of different types throughout the turn, and players must protect them accordingly, ensuring they are able to cast the right spell at the right moment, or to thwart the casting attempts of their rivals. That being the case, explaining how magic works early on is important and the following sections do just that. New players can skip over this section for now if they wish, focusing instead on the more mundane rules and returning to this section once a few games have been played.
