Albainn invocation question

Postby Stefan » Fri Oct 07, 2016 12:24 pm

Hi guys,

I've got a question regarding the oghu power invocation of the albainn.
So after I calculated the power+ value and the number of invoked die I strike at the nearest enemy unit visible to the unit's leader.
So if I cast this invocation at a unit of oghu do I use the oghus skill to determine the strike value ? And I strike with 2d10 per absorbed dice as my attacks correct ?
Also after casting this invocation the used absorb dice cannot be used anymore for the rest of the game or only until the end of the current hour ? As under absord in the rulebook it says that used absorb dice are restored at the end of a battle hour.

Thanks !

No - you ignore "hitting" completely, you've already hit; you go straight to "invoked" dice. So, your opponent immediately has to attempt to Avoid those invoked dice.

Not quite. Think of the absorbed dice as a pool that you can store in your Oghu Stones. Once they're used, they're gone for the rest of the game, until you absorb further enemy invocations!
