The Spellbook of Dispel
 

_________________________________________________________________

Spell Bio - As magic became more widespread and wizards, witches and sorcerers came into contact with each other, they soon realised that, in combat with one another, they would need a way to leverage the upper hand. Muttering incantations and cantrips, a spellcaster can break their opponent's spell, scattering its energies to the four winds - assuming their foe can't break their dispel first.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

• Q: If a figure tries to cast a spell that has a special attack or specifies that it's used 'instead of attacking', but I use Dispel to prevent the spell from being cast, can that figure then attack normally, since it didn't get to use the spell?
  A: No, that figure wouldn't get to attack - the attempt to cast the spell still replaces their attack.

Dispel
Common Spell
10 Points

Whenever an opponent's Common or Unique figure within 4 clear sight spaces would cast a spell, this figure may immediately cast this spell. You and that opponent must both roll the 20-sided die. If you roll higher than your opponent, that player may not cast any spells before the start of the next player's turn or the start of the next round, whichever comes first. If you also roll a 16 or higher, remove that spell from the game

Re: The Spellbook of Dispel
 

This one should hopefully be relatively quick and simple. The main concern right now, IMO, is setting down a vague cost for initial testing. I'm willing to let this spell generally fall where it may, though I'd try to avoid going too much over 30.

Re: The Spellbook of Dispel
 

The costliest spell in circulation is only 50 points. A 50% shot at delaying the cast of an opponent's spell and a 12.5% shot at nuking it completely doesn't seem like it could possibly be a 30 point value. I think you're pretty squarely in the 10 point arena here.

Re: The Spellbook of Dispel
 

That sounds good. :)

Re: The Spellbook of Dispel
 

Classic.

Re: The Spellbook of Dispel
 

So we're just going straight into MTG at this point I guess? :p

Kind of a standard spell that we'd definitely get to sooner or later. I'm definitely curious about the cost.

Re: The Spellbook of Dispel
 

Okay, doesn't sound like we have any issues here, but I'm still calling in the necessary CRB sanity check. @dok , @Dysole , @Soundwarp SG-1 , @weebaer , any issues? Am I good moving forwards with this tomorrow at 10 points?

Re: The Spellbook of Dispel
 

10 is fine, no concerns. Bring on the blue deck.
