So it was my first time taking a Lord that could cast the Dreaded Thirteenth Spell tonight (Verminlord) and I had been rolling crappy all game so at the end I figured hell, why not give it a shot? And wouldn't you believe it I got it off with my first time ever trying to cast it, and man it worked flawlessly :D

That got me wondering of other people out there who managed to cast this mythical spell, so kinda like the mile high club I thought I'd try setting up a thread for those of us who succeeded it doing the impossible.

If you've got a success with Curse of the Horned Rat say so here, also it would be fun to see how many people get it off straight or if they needed the Warpstone as a crutch (them poor Verminlords can't use Warpstone to ensure victory after all, they rely solely on the will of the Horned Rat ;) )

*bsb*

Quiet, I'm plotting.

First time I tried to cast it I got it off. Turned 25 Marauders threatening my flank into cuddly, flea ridden vermin.

The next 5 times I tried to cast it didn't get it off. Never touched the 25+ needed.

Just a point a grey seer can use only 5 dice, plus tokes or power stones he is a lvl 4 wizard.

hope this was a miss understanding on my part, as i dont like doing rules to other competent gamers. :)

Actually, warpstone tokens allow him to go beyond his limits. They gain extra dice to their spell, that are treated like power-dice except that they can go beyond their power-dice limit.

I've only cast it as a result of an opponent's miscast (one of the miscast table results is that your opponent can immediately cast one of his spells for free.) My opponent turned white and scrolled it. /sad

Tried my luck with 3 dices, and got a double 6

my roll saw 3 5's and a 6, and turned 20 HE spearmen+their general into clanrats

another time my opponent miscasts, but he scrolled the spell :(

Hawca you are correct - i know i used 6 dice so one must have been a token... its been a while since the game in question, it was a mistake in my post. -_-

I'm pretty sure you still have to meet the minimum casting cost in order for double 6's to be ultimate power, and three dice wouldn't cut it.

I got inspriation for my one after I cast it, a templeguard and slann all fell to the spell, now I'm going to be making a overweight breeder being carried by clanrats to remind him everytime that his revered slann is now a Wench of the underempire.
Shhhh I'm not here

No its not necessary to reach 25. Double 6 means irresistable, no other conditions required. (Except misscast overrules irresistable)

Your exaggeration is fittingly bold for a warlord, Trask. Apparently, you were casting the Spinal Tap version of the spell as the rest of ours only go to 24 ;)

Actually I've been wondering that one, because it says you have to target an infantry unit (which you did) but a Slann isn't infantry...I counted it anyways ^_^

I'm pretty sure that in 7th you now have to roll the minimum amount as well, but I don't have the book with me to confirm at the moment :unsure:
