But how does he know Ulthar?The only College leader to survive was Alric, who gave up the Supreme Patriarchy in shame for not being able to stop Horx.

They're both part of Fremdschämen Anonym.
I mean I agree but the Grungni festival is currently winning over the puppies by 17 votes.I don't get how spending time with Johann and his puppies are supposed to help us in finding out how compatible Johann is with Mathilde. We know they can live with one another well enough (and this is actually rather big, since not being able to put up with each other's quirks while living together can be a big deal-breaker in romance) , and that Johann would likely make a very good father, but I'm not sure what else new would necessarily come from it.
Once again, the Grey Order proves itself superior to all others, with the Jades coming a close second.
It could have been shot from an enchanted gun, too? Or maybe the effect was something that needed to be applied to the ammunition. I daresay a lot of the insta-kill spells would be very unsuited to being applied to a ranged weapon.![]()
Night of a Thousand Arcane Duels
"The Colleges of Magic have taken leave of their senses; if we do not put an end to this they will raze Altdorf to the ground." —Grand Theogonist Viktor Helmgart[3a] The Night of a Thousand Arcane Duels was an outbreak of violence between the wizards of the Imperial Colleges of Magic in 2415...warhammerfantasy.fandom.com
An enchanted bullet? Why would you enchant a bullet? Enchanting takes the same amount of time no matter what you're enchanting, so it's better to enchant the gun so that all your shots are magically enhanced rather than just one. It's why it's the Amber Bow, not the Amber Arrows.
That's him hitting his anvil too hard. Sure, he failed to cast the rune, but the implied context of "miscast" here is the sort of catastrophic failure a Battle Magic miscast bring.
I think that's supposed to be a blessed bullet. Charitably, you could say it's enchanted with divine magic.![]()

It depends tremendously on our next project, but in general yeah, I agree that Enchanting helps us do a lot of the things we want to be doing soon, which is why my current draft library plan involves grabbing some Enchanting books.Since the debate seems to be dying down, I wanted to go back to what we should be doing next turn. Personally, I would like to continue improving enchanting next turn because it is significant or potentially relevant to a number of our mid term goals or potential projects:
Hmm. @BoneyM might the book of Volans have insights about his use of Wind sight, and if so, could we use our great deed to be given limited access to those sections in much the same way trusted people are given access to carefully vetted sections of the Empire's edited copies of the Liber Mortis?

Balthazar Gelt's section states his victory over Thyrus Gorman ended "the long standing prominence of Fire"You consider it. "Elspeth von Draken probably could if she wanted to, but she only took up leadership of the Amethyst after whatever happened to Hexensohn and there were no better candidates. Paranoth might be able to, he was Supreme Patriarch for a few years, but that was years before I was even an Apprentice. Algard likes him too much, No-Relation Reicthard doesn't seem the type... I think the most likely candidate to try is Feldmann of the Golds, he's said to be ambitious and he's very good at getting along with non-Wizards... but to me, that suggests that he's not dipped enough into his Wind to stand a chance." You shake your head. "I think Dragomas is going to be a fact of life for the foreseeable future. And though that might not be ideal for your ambitions, I think he's good for the Empire."
I would like that.Hey, now that the voting frenzy has most settled, can I just say that we should try to visit Ulthar more frequently?
He is our archetypal War Buddy who went separate ways, each of us now in a much higher position than when we fought in The War, and appreciating of the honest companionship of just taking a few days to kick back, hang out and drink a lot. No pretenses or higher stakes or the politics our positions bring, just friends.
av enchantingIt depends tremendously on our next project, but in general yeah, I agree that Enchanting helps us do a lot of the things we want to be doing soon, which is why my current draft library plan involves grabbing some Enchanting books.
I suspect next turn is going to look something like:
- [Job-specific action]
- Enchanting Class
- Anti-Chaos Training
- Poke at the Coin
- Overwork on either another job action or something AV-related
Should we get books on Chaos to help with the anti-Chaos training? Normally I'm really hype for getting books even if it costs us gold, but given the subject matter...It depends tremendously on our next project, but in general yeah, I agree that Enchanting helps us do a lot of the things we want to be doing soon, which is why my current draft library plan involves grabbing some Enchanting books.

You have released something you cannot control...

Well, that's not as bad as the Liber Mortis, so clearly we'll be FiNe.History indicates that its insights are the sort that get the Colleges outlawed for fifteen years and get the reader executed by the Grand Theogonist.
Dragons are also pretty firey.Piecing together scraps of canon, my current best guess is that Thyrus Gormann is Supreme Patriarch from 2503 to 2519. 16 years multiplied by Gelt's melodrama could qualify as 'long standing prominence'.
See it'll work because instead of trying to use the Book for unlimited power (good thing) and got cursed with madness (bad) , we'll go use it with the expectations of only bad things and then ultimately get good things.Shadow wizards are the opposite of light wizards. If it went that bad when a light wizard read the Book of Volans, it must be really good if a shadow wizard did instead.![]()
Well, I meant his army book page, not his personal words, but I can dig it.Piecing together scraps of canon, my current best guess is that Thyrus Gormann is Supreme Patriarch from 2503 to 2519. 16 years multiplied by Gelt's melodrama could qualify as 'long standing prominence'.
@BoneyM is scroll-writing part of enchanting or is it its own thing like staff turning?
