Frostgrave - Rules

[joe5mc]

In general, the same rules apply. Certainly call Storm and Enchant Weapon work the same for both javelins and blackpowder weapons.

Some questions about playing Frostgrave:

Random encounter: You roll for any treasure, that is picked up for the first time.
So one roll for the first treasure, next roll for the second treasure and so on.
When a figure puts a treasure back on the board and another one picks it up nothing happens, right?

Group activation: a soldier has to be 3" away from the wizard or apprentice. How exactly will this be measures? On ground level all things are clear. But what about a soldier standing 1 or 2 levels above? Do you just take the birdview and simply measure 3" or do you something else? Like taking the hight somewhat in account.

[giles the zog]

[1] Yes, once a treasure has been picked up, that's it.

[2] We play it has 3" from the figure, in all dimensions. So a figure 6 inches up, even if in LOS and within 3" on a flat plane, is not able to be activated, because of the height difference. I think of it as the Wizard/Apprentice/Captain hissing or gesticulating orders, and at a long range the ordinary minions simply don't understand or can't hear properly.

Thanx

I've got one more.
You'll get XP for successfully cast spells.
When you cast a shooty spell like Elemental Bolt successfully and do not hit or do no damage you get XP.
When you cast a spell successfully and the enemy pass his will roll, the spell is considered as failed. Do you get XP aswell?

[jp1885]

Yep. If you cast a spell successfully you get XP regardless of any effect, or lack of.

[Ulli]

When you raise a zombie, can it activate that turn?

What happen to spells if the wizard, apprentice dies (like Fog). Do the spells continue?

[jp1885]

Yes and yes I think.

A question about dispell came up in a game last week. We know it removes control of a summoned demon and a raised zombie but does it remove control of a construct created by an Enchanter before the battle?

[joe5mc]

No. Constructs created by a wizard are a permanent part of the warband. They are not being controlled.

max armor is?

[Maspalio]

Got a question : May I drink a potion of invulnerability and the next turn spell and reinforce a cast without taking damages ?

I hope my question is understandable...

thanks

[joe5mc]

I think I understand. You are asking if the Potion of Invulnerability protects you from the damage you take for empower a spell. The answer is no. The potion only protects from damage from external sources, not damage you do to yourself from spellcasting - either empowering or damage you take do to failed (or even successful) casting.

[Maspalio]

Thanks a lot for your answer
