As a dwarf player, I don’t know why I watched 3 hours about magic, seems like some elf nonsense. But I had a good time watching it! Great job guys, looking forward to more deep dives!
This is the first Warhammer product I’ve ever bought. I’m putting together a force for a local escalation league to help learn the rules so this is a big help.
I watch your videos more than once... sometimes more than three times! I love your videos! I can listen to you geeks talk-Hammer all day, over and over again! Keep up the great work!
Keep in mind the Phantasmagoria only triggers at the end of the enemies movement. So they have a chance to dispel, and move away from it before it even can make them Impetuous or Panic (and Impetuous can't even trigger turn one).
This was what I was coming here to say. Even if you plop it down turn one and the trigger it by moving, they don't really suffer any ill effects from impetuous unless we circle all the way around to their turn again AND they fail to dispel it a second time.
Indeed, you need no engagement bait, ngl, i started watching this to make an informed decision on my sorcerers' lores, staid for the mathgammer, fun and vibes, built my last chosennas you were talking about the lores I can't even take and still learned a lot about what I'll be up against
Every deep dive needs that sound, put a smile on my face😂. Solid again lads. I commute home at the weekends and always listen to you guys for the 3 1/2 hours drive! Gutted I couldn't come to the opening at HQ as I only live 30 mins away but daughter was sick so couldn't make it. Keep up the great work lads, we are all still learning but it's fun doing it together, don't change a thing lads.
I'm in love with the idea of a Beastlord with Mangelder, his bestigors having the Manbane standard, and that demonology spell for potentially -5 leadership.
1:22:15 Here you say that you get to pick spells if you roll doubles? This isn't true though right? It just says you re-roll duplicate results. I think the picking on a double is from another edition. Also at 14:30 you say the same thing? You both seem very sure so I'm confused if I've missed something.
That was my read from the rules as well. Great video deep dive into Magic though! Lot is new, so important to dump out all the other editions of Warhammer Fantasy from the brain. 😅
I could not think of what one might do with Hammerhand unless playing Warriors of Chaos or a treeman, but if I am understanding Shield of the Lady for the Handmaidens of Bretonnia, it would mean they can be in the rear of the unit safe but still cast Hammerhand as if still in the front fighting rank. This could be very useful for a level 1 or 2 Damsel.
I think the value of a lot of these Lores is increased by the Lore Familiar magic item which lets you choose your spells, especially ones like Elementalisim which have only a couple really good spells which if you can guarantee you can do a lot of list building around.
What an epic video. Love your work lads! You both have excellent chemistry feeding off each other, keep it up! I’m working on my Warriors of Chaos list and this video really helped in deciding how to flesh it out (taking more than one wizards now😂😂😂)
Absolutely love the deep dive alarm 😂 3 hours is nearly enough square based for a week.. Don't kill yourselves chasing more but anything you put out I'll keep clicking it O7
Ok, now I *NEED* some people with lots of O&G make a narrative game, both using O&G, both taking as many wizards as possible and the entire battle turning into a place with giant godfeet of magic stomping all over the field xD
I genuinely tried this my first game with two wizards. The fickle foot of Gork was more interested in stomping me than the bretonnians, but man it was worth it.

So many cool spells to try but they’re gonna be difficult to learn. If only GW made a set of reference cards we could readily buy in shops or on their website.
And even if you did get a chance to pre-order, if you live in the East Coast USA, you couldn't get them anyway because the snow storms delayed all of the shipments to stores.
Can you choose a fated dispel if you have a wizard available? Or is the wording that you only get a fated one if your wizard cannot dispel for whatever reason?
You can do a fated dispell once per turn for whatever reason you like. If you're out of range, don't have a wizard, or perhaps don't want to risk a Miscast.
Waaagh! magic is without a doubt THE most chaotic magic there is and man does it look like that now more than ever. Thanks again Rob and Val for all the work you guys do, so much. Cheers!
Someone's gotta correct me if I'm wrong. From the Sister's of the Thorn rules, their Deepwood Coven ability states that they know one spell "chosen by their controlling player before armies are deployed." That reads that it's not randomly generated. If so, that's crazy-useful to guarantee you have Curse of Arrow Attraction.
The major secondary benefit of dispel magic from my pov is that it makes casting harder to proc in the first place therefore you don't have to risk dispells as often Also it would seem you can cast shield of saphery first and then cast another enchantment spell on the same unit since it only states it gets rid of ones cast previously Also I see those devious cogs turning in your mind Rob with regards to vortex spam ;P It was some of the first magical shenanigans I thought of as well Sisters of the thorn pillars of fire spam seems like a ridiculous standoff tactic since you can kite the casters away from potential dispels and keep crisping units whilst hampering their charges Wind blast is also a contender for me since you can utilize the poisoned javelins at 12" and follow up with a wind blast to widen the distance even more, seems like a bit more reliable damage but less control so a combination of the 2 would probably be ideal The fact that they are a special choice means that you can run 7 of them (@2k) as well which is just plain ridiculous since they all get to CHOOSE their spells BEFORE DEPLOYMENT from both battle magic and elementalism... the ultimate utility unit imho
Well I'm going to give this a listen while I support some STLs for spicing up my units in my Vampire counts army.. looking good, Witches in the wood should look super cool.
Since you asked for comments on drain magic, I think it's a very weak effect. As Rob noticed, it's a remains in play, which means you opponent will get another free chance to dispel it, this time at it's base value, before they cast any spells. At 9+ that's trivial for a level 4 and pretty easy for even a level 2. Even if it's not dispelled it's quite weak. Unless you have low level wizards attempting high difficulty spells the +2 casting value requirement will mostly be irrelevant. A level 4 doesn't really care if it needs to roll a 6 instead of 4, on 2d6 since it's aiming for much higher than that or it will be easily dispelled. So for this spell to have any impact at all you need to: 1 Successfully cast it. 2 Opponent fail to dispel it 3 Opponent fail to dispel it at it's base value on their turn 4 Opponent roll exactly 1 or 2 below the new modified casting value That's an absurd requirement. Overall a very disappointing signature. Should have been -2 to the opponents casting roll, and lasts until your next start of turn sub phase instead of remains in play.
It's cast on a 9, you have to beat the casting value to dispel, so the dispel on their turn needs a 10+. That's pretty easy for a lvl 4 to beat, but pretty good against multiple lower level casters who are failing more than they succeed, and that's where the +2 casting value is also at its most effective. Certainly a very matchup dependent spell, but does not seem bad.
@@mikereed4594 That's true, good point. Yeah still quite easy for a level 4 but a little bit harder than I'd thought. I agree it's decent against multiple low level casters. It's just a shame that that's already when you're dispelling most enemy spells with your level 4. You'd really want drain magic to help when you're evenly matched or even behind (like against Chaos +6 to cast). But drain magic will do basically nothing there.
About Phantasmagoria, I am guessing there will be discussions about enemy units that didnt move but are in range of the template. The casting player will say they endet their movement inside and the defending player will say "i didnt end any move since i didnt move".
Id only Steed of Shadows could be cast before the charge phase, an 8x3 brick of say, chosen, or Knights of the Realm on foot. A 13-18 inch charge range. It’s still a fantastic spell though, but damn, I’d take it start of charge phase on an 11+!
Also, Daemonic Vessels, you guys kept talking about it buffing units, but it clearly says “self”, caster and mount only. The units don’t get +1 Str, attacks, and AP1. Only ever the caster.
Only other thing you guys seem to be missing is that most remain in play spells, like Drain Magic, templates, and buffs and hexes can be dispelled each round for its casting value. As it’s cast you need to beat the casters roll, but the next turn it’s dispelled at its value. Or that’s how I’ve seen it played in multiple places. Also, great work and great videos.
One thing I realized for assailant spells is that if you have higher Initiative than your opponent, you can wipe out their front line and prevent them from hitting back. So hammerhand is brutal vs dwarfs let's say, because you take away their heavy armor and take down several front rank models with great weapons before they get to hit you
at 19:30 you have on the conditions that it cannot be cast on the same unit multiple times. Doesn't it say 'during the same turn' in the rules so if the spell is continuous I would say you can cast it multiple times on a unit just not in the same turn.
It feels like RAI with the "all other X previously cast on any of the affected models immediately expire." is to thwart stacking the effect of the spell with others - but RAW it just changes the order in which you try to cast your enchantments / hexes, no?
Yes exactly. Because that condition was not consistently applied it sure seems that it can be gotten around by certain lores. This feels like something that might be cleaned up with errata in the future.
As a dwarf player, I don’t know why I watched 3 hours about magic, seems like some elf nonsense. But I had a good time watching it! Great job guys, looking forward to more deep dives!
You've got to bring a good honest immovable grudgin anvil.
Know thy enemy.
I'm also a Dwarf player and I'm watching this to understand magic better so I can defeat magic.
Just another Elgi scheme... there will be no alliance with elves, only a reckoning!
Every deep dive needs to start with the submarine noise. Arguably the double awoooga. Val’s fuck up just established a new precedent.
The double is serious
I wish I could live life with half the enthusiasm Val puts into his interpretive dance intros.
It breaths life into my day.
This is the first Warhammer product I’ve ever bought. I’m putting together a force for a local escalation league to help learn the rules so this is a big help.
Third watch, still learning every time 👍

I think we're ok with this? Should we start using a safe word?
The more of these you put out the more i'm tempted to give old world a try. Love watching you guys bounce off each other with such great enthusiasm ❤
You have now been my favorite Old world channel! Keep em coming! :D
Love you Val! Thanks for coming on my show last week!
You two continue crush it!
Im new to the Old World and watching 😁 really excited to get in and ive chosen Dwarfs as my 1st army.
Enjoying the content, thanks

3 hours in and still a fan. What a thiccc, juicy review.
By far the most entertaining warhammer duo. Keep up the great content!
Outstanding review and the best intro to date, cried with laughter - even more hilarious on twitch. Deep dive!!
Id wish they kept that crazy shit on the miscast table. I need more of that gameplay in my life
You smashed this video out the park guys.
Information was great and going need to watch the video more than once lol.

Haha, tbis is the first time Ive watched on my TV instead of my phone.....let me tell you that the Val intro in 75 inch is something to behold.
Def the best Old World channel. Factions dives are awesome. Can't wait for the rest.
Brilliant stuff as always, fun and educational, really loved getting Val's initial impressions on alot of the spells
If I am going to Canada this year, I need a Pint or five with Val. What a dude!
3 days and I made it to the end. A deep dive *insert sound effect* indeed! Great stuff.
This video is as long as a lord of the rings movie and packs more content. I love it!
Nice. Looking forwards to the Empire overview you’ve said is coming soon and more deep dives with both of you.
3 hours of lovely background awesomeness while I paint some models. I ended up starting Wood Elf army and I 100% blame your video :D
That submarine intro was glorious!
This channel carry the hype for TOW so hard! Thank you guys!
If anyone else did a 3hr hour video on magic it would have been dry as ….., great job guys.
You guys are fantastic.
I really appreciate coming across your channel, lots of useful vids for a new player

That was a wonderful video. I’m excited to see how wild Bret can be with magic!
Another epic show. Loving this, keep it up guys.
ALL the magical vortices!
Thanks gang! I’d never have been able to sit and read all those, so big shout out to Val and Rob for helping this poor ADHDer out
Do you need vision and line of sight of the enemy wizard to wizardly dispell
No, just need to be in range.
Thanks for the video
Loving all the content you guys are putting out! Keep up the good work

Also it would seem you can cast shield of saphery first and then cast another enchantment spell on the same unit since it only states it gets rid of ones cast previously
Also I see those devious cogs turning in your mind Rob with regards to vortex spam ;P It was some of the first magical shenanigans I thought of as well
Sisters of the thorn pillars of fire spam seems like a ridiculous standoff tactic since you can kite the casters away from potential dispels and keep crisping units whilst hampering their charges
Wind blast is also a contender for me since you can utilize the poisoned javelins at 12" and follow up with a wind blast to widen the distance even more, seems like a bit more reliable damage but less control so a combination of the 2 would probably be ideal
The fact that they are a special choice means that you can run 7 of them (@2k) as well which is just plain ridiculous since they all get to CHOOSE their spells BEFORE DEPLOYMENT from both battle magic and elementalism... the ultimate utility unit imho
Well I'm going to give this a listen while I support some STLs for spicing up my units in my Vampire counts army.. looking good, Witches in the wood should look super cool.

What about double ones on fated dispel? Who suffers miscast effects? If I missed the answer - sorry!
No one

Arcane Urgency on Fanatics? Would it work this way?
Oh! Oh! It's Magic!
I went all the way! I managed to magnetise 13 Ungors, put three Dragon Ogres together and paint a Bray-shaman. Good times!
at 19:30 you have on the conditions that it cannot be cast on the same unit multiple times. Doesn't it say 'during the same turn' in the rules so if the spell is continuous I would say you can cast it multiple times on a unit just not in the same turn.
Worth a read thankyou

Yes exactly. Because that condition was not consistently applied it sure seems that it can be gotten around by certain lores. This feels like something that might be cleaned up with errata in the future.
Wind Blast is a killer - you can push enemy units off the board instantly killing them or pushing them into dangerous terrain etc. Brutal
I think elementalisms earthen ramparts would be great on a unit with impetous that you do not want to charge with would that work?
I think Rob has convinced me to start a beastmen army
