Some questions from a newbie

Oh and finaly will you be able to both strike in combat and before it use magic? I assume yes because i got a feel that you can do anythign ant it will just deduct the ap for a full attack at the end of the turn when you do the attack, making you have less action points for the next turn. That would make combat mages a bit more viable, only problem I guess is they would be easy to hit due to casting a lot in armor (most likly)

Sorry, just noticed this question. I don't think you can both strike and use magic, but I *think* (never checked the debug log for this) touch spells still require a successful attack roll (and presumably the defender gets a defense roll to oppose this). More importantly, there's only a 50% chance of a mage being able to cast a spell when an enemy is in hand-to-hand range, otherwise he will attack hand-to-hand.
