Dinesen Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 It says it may only be used for Casts or Channels. So may Collodi combine his Casting expert with this extra AP he can gain from the Arcane Effigy to be able to Cast a (2)Spell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Jinx Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 I think it's in the rules for specific ap, it came up in one of our games but I don't have a book with me atm and I don't remember where we found it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Bacms Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Need to check that page when I get home. Might be annoying finding out I can't give an extra action for Marcus to cast a (2) AP spell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 brib4169 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 so to summarize... The manual says you cannot combine special AP with anything unless the model card says otherwise. The card says it can be used to cast or channel so you can cast a 1ap spell or add it to another AP to channel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The card says it can be used to cast or channel so you can cast a 1ap spell or add it to another AP to channel Ok that makes sense so it works for casting a (2) AP spell if you are combining it with a normal AP point, but can only be used in conjunction with a casting master AP if it is to cast (1)AP spells Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 011121 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 This is one of the few areas where I think malifaux is needlessly complicated for no good reason. We usually home rule that AP can be combined freely so long as being used for their 'flavor' of action. Yeah there's probably some obscure interaction of special rules that this breaks but I don't care, it's just a better system. Another overcomplication is the way they did gunfighter, overcomplicated and leads to an annoying artifact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
Dinesen
It says it may only be used for Casts or Channels. So may Collodi combine his Casting expert with this extra AP he can gain from the Arcane Effigy to be able to Cast a (2)Spell?
