Casting spells correctly?
Is this already working as intended? Am I doing something wrong?

- Last game I wanted to dispell the command spell with my Antimagic spell (or whtever it's called ;) ) the spell clearly reads that I could do it, but unfortunately I could never use it. Whenever the dude at the crown rolled a 4-6 I clicked on my Antimagic spell but there was no "use" button or something, yes I also tried spamming leftclick on the card, I was never fast enough or it's just not possible.

- Now today's game, I got the Immobility spell, it reads "Cast at the start of a character's turn, before they move. (...)". But it seems I can't use it anytime outside of my turn or even not at the end of my turn. If I use at the start of my turn, I can only Immobilze myself, what is pretty stupid. :/

When Nomad releases this game, I'm assuming in their manual they will include a clear section on how to queue spells *nudge nudge*

Anyway, double-click on a spell to queue it and it'll cast at the next available opportunity.

Thanks, that might come in handy. :p2chell:

In a bid to keep spells secret, we didn't want to prompt players to cast spells or to have long pauses when someone can cast something as it gives the secret away, so instead we thought it would be good to be able to queue a spell so that it's ready and waiting to fire off the next time it's valid.

The best way to cast 'at the start of another character's turn' spells is to double-click it in the play area (at the bottom of the screen) during the previous player's turn. The spell card will raise slightly to show you that it is ready to go. You can only queue one spell at a time. Hope this helps.

Speaking of this, was the Displacment Spell bug fixed? The game would always crash upon casting it.

We've used that spell in a few online games today and it hasn't crashed, so unless a very specific situation was causing it, it's fixed.

Divination still not working in local play. You only see the back of the cards.

This might be so other local players can't see the cards. Try pressing the V key next time it happens and see if the cards flip around.

A friend of mine crashed the game just this very second using a Displacement spell on a card in the same region he was in (inner) He was displacing a Dragon strength 7. While this happend there was 2 other players in the inner region and 1 player was at the crown of command zapping us. Gave no error but all 4 of us crashed saying Talisman has crashed. Hope that helps!
