August 14, 2022 by Long Shadow 2 Comments

Overcasting in WFRP 4e is a tricky subject. It’s great for wizards and other arcane casters, but it’s a bit hit and miss. Sure, magic in Warhammer has its roots in Chaos, but that doesn’t mean wizards are or should be chaotic too. What am I getting at? Well, lets look at an example. Say […]
