Fire 9 blessing

[magnate]

I'm playing Blessomet (Fire-9 Astral-9 Baphomet) and I have a question about the blessing.

On my units a flaming sword appears saying "8ap damage".

Is it just this damage that is AP, or is the rest of their attack damage also AP? How is it calculated? Like two attacks or added together?

TIA,

Like having an extra attack that does 8 AP damage, and is magical, so it can hit ethereal units just fine.

Does it add strength?

Also, does the 50% quickness for W9 bless increase attacks or just movement?

[Cainehill]

Blood blessing adds strength. And yes, the W9 quickness gives a 50% chance each turn of extra actions - attack, spell, etc.

I believe that Water-9 bless gives you two actions per round (instead of 1) and 150% movement points. So if you have a tactical move of 10, with Water-9 bless you get 15. But you get 2 actions per round, not 1-and-a-half actions per round (which would be 3 actions every 2 rounds).

Water-9 blessing does *not* stack with the Quickness spell or Boots of Quickness. I think that it stacks with Heroic Quickness, but I'm uncertain of the details.

Note: Quickness spell *does* affect you if you already have a Water-9 blessing in effect, namely, it sets your move to 200% instead of 150%, and it gives you +3 defense. But it does not increase the number of actions per round you get, which is already at "two per round" due to the Water-9 blessing.

By "does it add strength" I meant does the 8ap damage from the F9 attack add strength to the damage?

No.

P.S. I've not tried it but I bet heroic quickness DOES stack with the W9 blessing ...
