Mystics

Unlike your fabled land of Earth, the citizens of Utopia truly believe in and have witnessed the powers of magic. From the deadly plagues to the amazingly fertile land, so much has happened on this planet that cannot be explained away by science or nature. As ruler of your lands, you have access to some of the most amazing magical spells ever known. Below, I will try to explain to the best of my ability the powers of these spells and how to make magic your friend.

Essentials: Runes, Wizards, and Guilds

Spells require Runes, Wizards, and Guilds to be cast. Towers produce runes every hour, which are consumed with each spell. Wizards are naturally trained by your Guilds. Like all of the other individuals across your lands, they come from your peasantry and reduce your number of available workers. Be careful not to hold too many Wizards or you may be sacrificing your peasantry, thieves, or military. At any time, you can release Wizards back into the peasantry or simply shut down additional training. Your Wizards maintain a Mana Rating which determines whether or not they can cast spells. This rating rises automatically each day and drops each time you cast a spell. Your Wizards will not cast spells without at least a 10% Mana Rating and spells will take significantly more mana the higher your rating is and the more difficult a spell is. Casting spells is not without risks. Failed attempts can result in explosions and kill a small portion of your wizards as well has taking 50% more mana per spell.

Determining Success

To cast a spell, you must have both wizards and mystic runes. For spells cast upon yourself, success is based on your Guild percentage, your Building Efficiency and your magic effectiveness - the more guilds you have, the better you will do. For spells cast upon others, the success is based on your relative wizard population, measured as Wizards Per Acre (WPA), modified by the racial bonuses or penalties and your knowledge of Channeling. The higher your WPA compared to an enemy, the better your success. However, there is always a great deal of chance in every spell. Furthermore, the duration of all spells is greatly impacted by your Guild percentage.

Duration of Spells

The duration of successful spells is affected by:

• The nominal duration of that particular spell, which differs for each spell.
• The percentage of guilds the casting province has, with no additional effect for amounts over 20%.
• The relative net worth of the two provinces.
• The current relations between the two provinces' kingdoms.

Additionally, there is an element of randomness.

One quarter of the nominal duration of a spell is always contributed to the final cast time. A scaling factor made up of the % guilds, relative net worth and current relations then governs the contribution of another quarter of the nominal duration. Finally, the remaining half of the nominal duration is contributed to the final cast time, scaled by both the scaling factor and a random number.

For example, given a spell with a nominal duration of 24 days:

• with a scaling factor of 100% (meaning both provinces have the same net worth, are in war, and the caster has 20% or more guilds), the final cast time will be in the range of 12-24 days.
• in a situation with a scaling factor of 0% (e.g., the cast has no guilds), the final cast time will be 6 days (25% of 24 days).
• in a situation with a scaling factor of 50%, the final cast time will be 6 days (25% of 24 days) + 3 days (25% of 24 days multipled by scaling factor of 50%) + 0-6 days (random number out of 50% of 24 days multiplied by scaling factor of 50%), which equals 9 - 15 days in total.

Restriction & Limits

Certain spells are designated Unfriendly, Hostile or War Only spells -- Because of the destructive nature of these spells, they can be cast only against provinces which have at least a certain level of relations with your kingdom. In addition, you will find that many of these spells are more effective during heightened relations conditions.

Spells are divided into two categories, as listed below:

• Self Spells
• Offensive spells

There are 3 possible outcomes of casting a spell. It can be successful, it can fail, or it can fail and some wizards may die.

• Successful message: Your wizards gather their runes and begin casting. The spell consumes X Runes and ... is successful!
• Fail message: Your wizards gather their runes and begin casting. The spell consumes X Runes and ... fizzles. Alas, we were not able to fulfill your expectations. Please forgive us.
• Dying wizards message: "Leader name", something has gone terribly wrong with our spell. X of our wizards were killed in an explosion!
