In OI

Can you opt to take "Emotionless" as an existing neuronic character?
What happens with emotionless and the benefit of buying adept about emotion restrictions?

Yes you can, and adept doesn't change. It means its 30 seconds before you neuronics come back.

Are Silverfolk really not outlawed anymore?

Where do you want me to post typos, misprints and so on for v16.2? (as I have a few).

Huw

silverfolk are still wanted, dead or alive.

If something is costed differently this time around can you keep what you have already purchased at old price or do you need to refund and re-buy it?

you get a refund and re-buy it at the new cost if you want to keep it.

Can a Troll who has gained 1/2 effect Fire go Fire Demon gain complete Immune to Fire.

Iain

P.s thanks to everyone who put their time into creating these new books.

they can go fire demon, but the restriction about resistance to fire still applies, so they don't gain complete immunity.

Can classes which do not have a 1st class buy-as (such as Leywalkers) but the new statuses? Can classes which start in two brackets buy statuses from both?

the status' are not 1st class buy as, they are based on your base class being in the relevant bracket. So if your base class is in the warrior bracket you can buy them. So for ley walkers they are scouts and druids, so can buy both.

In Wiz Grim, would a Chromatic Wizard who buys Metallic Wizard only gain/be able to cast Jade if goodly and Onyx if evil?

Thanks,

M

Can High Wizards take the Natural Talent Status and remain a High Wizard? i.e. does it negate the class restriction about reading mana glyphs?

BBB

no

What colours can Faeries take? There does not appear to be a restriction on them being "New Colours" it just says "Standard Spell".

Have they changed or are the same as previously?

BBB

they have indeed changed. New fairies can be "new" (as in around longer than some players have been alive) colours. This doesn't let existing one change.

If I buy immortal to 6th but not the upgrade, so I'm immune to physical damage but not physical effects, can I still call physical effects?
What about damaging physical effects like poison?

Physical effects yes, damage no.

Now that Word of Command exists (Bronze Spell) isn't Power Word Die now completely redundant (i.e. 1 is 4 mana less, has the same immunities apply and can be used as a VOP die in any event).

I agree I can't see any reason you'd want Power Word Die really, and if people want to respend it they can.

hi lee

thank you to you and all the other people who put time in on this project.

1 quick question so far I have purchased the table 6 total immunity to neuronics and in the new books you need psionic retardation .am I correct the above ability will stop working till the pre-requisite has been purchased,and if the is any other pre-requisites added to any other abilitys they would need to be purchased as well? seems correct but just a quick check

mark

[i] Correct it's 40 points more basically.
Paladin etc. Spiritual buy as has changed, so worth checking that out.
Pathed characters and casting mantics.
Fire elf and complete immunity to fire.
Having a position of power anywhere.
Can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

Philosophical questions : Should toughened skull (immunity to subdual damage) still be there? And if so is there a description of subdual damage?

Nope, it is tradition smile.gif

I can't see 'e' skill for goblins anywhere, I think that this went before these books and was in miscellaneous meandering. Altogether possible that it has been deliberately removed. Just wanted to check.

Goblins don't get E skill, enjoy smile.gif

I'd also like to echo the thanks of all above to everyone who has been involved with putting the books together.

Ben

Thank you

Given you can acquire new colour glyphs as specialists, can any colour wizard now read scrolls of them? (Wiz Grimoire, p.90, 4th Bullet Point)

Can Warlocks now read teaching scrolls of combat-related glyphs without an ability?

Ta

Stuart

yes and yes.

Level Drain - Sorry Wraith's Touch...
Appears to have a duration of Permanent, can levels no longer be recovered without an external influence or do they still naturally return?

Cheers

It's always been permanent, since instant would mean they come back straight away. You can get them back just as you used to be able to.

Scout Book - Specialist states that Quin becomes the new base for Surprise Blow. Does this include Greater Surprise Blows or is that still based on Quad+Backstabs?

yes it includes greater surprise blows.

Scouts (and wizards) - I assume they can now read any colour basic magical scrolls (apart from opposite if they have a colour)?
No alignment restriction for reading the 'new' colours?

Andy

Correct, except for jade/onyx and sabre spells.

Morning all,

I don't suppose it's possible to order the new books online/via the phone and have them delivered?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Email the booking lin and Duncan should be able to help.
