so considering the rumors of the changes to magic what do you guys think about slann in 8th. if the changes of 2d6 holds true for power/dispel dice, slann with their free power dice and full lores could be right overpowered in 8th.

What do you guys think on the subject?

My biggest fear will be rolling an irrisistable force.
Why you get hammered for successfully casting a spell is beyond me.

Miscasting
Here is where I think we need a lot more information.
# [*]It is rumoured that miscasts are entirely gone, but are replaced by a combined irresistible force/ miscast table effectively:

[*]When you roll a double 6 the spell is cast with irresistible force, but the Caster has to roll on the "lost control" chart, which is devastating, and far more worse than the current miscast table.


Lost Control Chart
# Roll of 1: Could be S10 hit for caster and models in base contact.

Roll of 4: The wizard is sucked into the warp and the large template is centred over him. S10 hits for models under a 5” template, centred on the wizard. Also, roll a D6. On a roll of 1-3 your wizard is plunged into the realm of chaos, ond a 4+ you lose D6 power dice instead.


Why you get hammered for successfully casting a spell is beyond me.

It is as if they want us to not use high end spells and to give yet another boost to low number dice casting by VC.

I don't put much stock in the rumors of the IF chart. Too many rules are centered around the word "miscast"
