Default Re: Understanding Communion

Yep, I agree with thejeff there. Although it would cost the slaves 100 fatigue, that just means 100 fatigue, whereas 100 fatigue in spell descriptions is code for "100 fatigue and a gem".

And actually, although I said that's an example where communion's not very good, actually I think I lied - if you had no air boosters, that might be the only way you could cast a battle-winning Fog Warriors, although I think 4 slaves would do at a pinch.

With 4 slaves the sorceress would become level 4. She'd then spend 1 gem to become level 5 for the turn, and 3 for the spell - so she'd spend her maximum of 4 gems for the turn. She'd take 300 fatigue, but since you can never take more than 200 fatigue from a single spell (an important rule that I don't think is explicit in the manual), she wouldn't die.

The slaves on the other hand would only be level 2, three levels too low, so the spell would be quadruple cost, giving each one 4*300/5 = 240 fatigue. So here's another question - would that just count as 200 fatigue, or would they die?
