Default Re: Suggestions to improve the Water Magic discipline

Here's one:

Dream of Turmoil
Conjuration 6 (path from Voice of Tiamat, as they both deal with dreams)
Water 6, Astral 1
Gem cost: ???
This spell causes the caster to fall into a trance, and dreams of what would happen if every unit and commander in this province were to attack the targetted province. While the caster dreams true, it isn't always possible to move everyone there for the battle, and the dream Lasts too long for the caster to act on the information in time for the dream to become reality.

Mechanics: The caster casts the spell, and targets a province. The next turn, the player gets a message: a battle simulation, showing what would have happened had everyone in the province moved to the targeted province for a battle (or a message to the effect that there weren't any troops or province defense outside of any castles, if that was the case) - but it doesn't move anyone, and doesn't inflict any actual casulties or injuries - it was just a dream. Perhaps the targetted player recieves a message that the troops in that province all recieved distrubing dreams, but gets no details. An extremely good spell for scouting - although limited, as it won't give you any info on what's inside of a castle (you'd end the turn seiging the castle, if you won, not fighting the defenders).
