Ah that makes sense, it's just using shield symobols that doesn't.

I really don't see the point of the rerolls. I know it was much more of a pain because of the way p-b-p works but it still doesn't work for me. What's is supposed to represent? It makes the combat more complicated for no good reason. If it was an artefact that gave this ability it would be different.

The storm wizard is an all or nothing hero, but I don't see this as a problem. In that forgotton legion quest a storm wizard could ruin it, but that's a very exreme case, I've never seen a quest like that before. Remember that each target is attacked individually so the chances of wiping out a room full of monsters is low, especially if they have multile BP and most of my monsters have. In this case the most damaging spell (inferno) would probably take out every skeleton, three zombies two mummies and one chaos warrior. All the other spells are less damaging and would probably leave quite a few alive.

It is a high-value target for Morcar because of it's super strong spells.
It is an easy target for Morcar, because of it's low Body Points.

High value-easy target.... early death.


In fact, I was killing Stormy because he would have spoiled the possibility for a side Quest otherwise. Before, i didn't kill him because i tried to kill the Barbarian, and i wanted to see how he plays out. I never killed a Barbarian before, so this was really worth trying. :) It was really my decision "ok now Stormy should die" and she died. This is the problem. Heroes shouldn't be killable like that.

The rerolls, yes, i admit they don't fit to HQ. You have to change the dicing system before they possibly fit, and that's a pain in the ass. :D I won't do it. Not soon, anyway. So no rerolls for me, not soon.

Actually inferno couldn't kill any of the chaos warriors because they've got 4BP in my rules.

Stormy was very unlucky to die like that though, especially with the rerolls. It's not often you lose 3BP in one attack. You also used the alarm just before it so there was nothing I could do.

You should have the GM screen reward!
