Default Re: Rain of Stones?

I dont know that you can really say that Fire storm affects all units though.. I think it hits like what? 10% of units per turn or something like that. Seeing as how it doesnt hit 100% I think it would be difficult to say that it is in fact actually hitting the normal percentage of troops. The advantage there is that it just keeps going and going until eventually it will definitly be hitting the normal amount of troops per turn.

But it could be that battlefield Enchantments do actually do what they say opposed to Battlefield wide spells. It just doesnt matter so much either way in that case since it continues to work its magic for the duration.

Default Re: Rain of Stones? (AoE question)

Quick question about AoE:

From what I can gather these are all of the possible AoE values:

BF, 25, 15, 12, 10, 9, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0

0 - Presumably impacts caster only
1 - Presumably impacts the square the caster is in only
BF - Limits noted in thread, otherwise most of the BF

What is the AoE for values 2-25?

Is it the radius around the caster (150 squares for an AoE of 5)?

The diameter (39 squares for an AoE of 5)?

For an AoE of 5 is it a 5x5 square centered on the caster?

Is it literally 5 squares? And if there are 9 squares around and including the caster, are the actually 5 impacted squares a random draw from the 9 possible squares?

Also, does anyone know what the total area of the battlefield is?
