Hi,

I've recently become aware that Hero's Call actually has the Wizard Lord class. Does it also have the Battle Mage one?

If so, can someone give me the general idea of what their respective class cards do?

Thx.

Yes, there is a Battle Wizard and a Wizard Lord in this extension.

Note that they are not at the same level. BattleWiz is the step after Wizard career (as is Master Wizard), when Wizard Lord is the step after Master or Battle Wiz.

Battle Wiz and Master Wiz are quite the same, apart the ability (the Battle Wiz has a bonus to soak) and the talent slots (Tactic for BattleWiz instead of Reputation) and of course the distribution of the advances (the most important difference is a +2 Reckless for BattleWiz when it is a +2 Conservative for Master Wiz).

The WizLord is above the two preceding careers, with an additional 5th talent slot, and a powerfull reroll ability.

Wow, thanks a lot for the quick reply, Thindaraiel.

Could you tell me please how significant the soak value for the Battle Wiz is? Also, what's the career ability of the Master Wiz?

Also, ****, now I have to figure out where to get Hero's Call from (assuming our party makes it. It'll probably be a year till we reach rank4)

The BattleWiz ability increases the soak value by 1, 2, 3 depending if the wizard is below, at, or above equilibrium.

The MasterWiz ability allows him to gain immediate power (quantity equal to his rank) once per session.

Very nice. Thanks for the info, I'll speak to our GM and we'll order it right away

Here's to hoping I don't bite the dust till rank 4

Just so you know Heroes call also contains for the 8 colleges and Empire religions of for Rank 4 & 5 spell/blessings semi completing the magic/blessing system. I say semi however as it does not do this for Dark, Chaos, Necromantic, Skaven, Shaman or Waaagh spells, nor does it expand upon runes or engineer weapons.

I must say of all the big box sets, while Heroes Call was not lacking in content it did feel somewhat half finished in comparison to the Magic/Divine/Social/War box sets despite being of the same bracket in terms of cost, size and emphasis.
