  Combat Queries

  6 December 2022 at 9:44am

  Hi. Picked up Raiders of Dune Sea at the Hammersmith expo, really enjoying it. A few question around combat.
  Augment - Spend 2 magic. Add a die. Add 2. Do you use the reduced magic for the calculation, or the standard magic then reduce your magic at the end of the spell in time for the start of the next round?
  Next question. Battling the grundy fam. Carrying over health & attributes. Attributes implies that the reduced magic from Augment also carries over, is that correct?
  Next, do used abilities refresh or remain "used" for the next fight within the grundy family battles?
  Many thanks.

  Hi
  Glad that you are enjoying the book! To answer your questions:

  1. Augment. You spend the magic to cast the spell, so that happens first. So you lower your magic by 2. Then you roll an extra die for damage, then add 2 to the result. (So you lower your magic first, then play out the rest of the ability.)

  2. Yes, you are correct. Any lowered attributes carry through into the next phase of the fight.

  3. Used abilities refresh for the next fight.

  Hope that helps and good luck with your battles!
