    You can update the greedy fist paragraph for Ogres. It was errata'ed to only work on close combat attacks some time ago:

    Page 62 – Greedy Fist, second paragraph.
    Change the last sentence to “In addition, an enemy Wizard
    loses a Wizard level and a randomly selected spell each time
    they are hit in close combat by an Ogre wearing the Greedy
    Fist.”

    I don't know. One would probably need to inquire on the Chaos Dwarf forum about that unusual situation.

    Thanks Yakhunter, I removed the erroneous Greedy Fist entry in lieu of this new information.

    I also added a bound spell section now that I now own a Dwarf book. That just leaves Skaven, which I am still dependent on a volunteer for. Also, let me know if I missed any unique bound spells (and describe them and color code them please).

    Added lore of Undeath the OP (calling this thread necromancy would be somewhat redundant).

    I still need a volunteer to cover the Skaven lores.

    Plague is nasty on skinks, toughness test, and might leap to another nearby unit? no please!

    Crack's call is dangerous too.

    Poison on rat's are also useful against saurii

    sadly i don't know enough about the spells to really make a tactica on it, but suffice to say, it's rather nasty, one of the better lores.

    I had to throw this thread in the Tactica Graveyard because the color coding was altered from the forum move and I wanted to add End Times stuff. Character count limits prevented me from editing the original posts, so I started a reboot, but @The Red Devil managed to drastically raise the character count of posts on the forum allowing me to revive the Old thread.

    Thanks TRD for enabling the first Tactica to escape the Graveyard!

    More will soon come...and then when the dead outnumber the living, we will truly ascend muhahaha...nevermind ignore the last sentence.

    And some good came out my aborted reboot, because it refreshed the topic to the top of the Tactics section and @airjamy volunteered to cover Skaven. The only remaining blind spot.

    I agree, there are a lot of spells and special things that the Skaven can hit you with. The dreaded 13th is the biggest danger, especially if your unit of TG with your Slann in it already had to sustain some casualties and can be one shot, but there are some more dangers to be found against this army. I am for the coming few days incredibly busy with studies, so i expect to have time in the weekend to actually write.

    Looking forward to it, I know Skaven has some nasty magic potential.

    Thanks to @airjamy's PMing me his review of the Skaven lores, at long last, I am declaring this Tactica complete.

    If you believe there is a an omission or glaring typo, let me know. Also feel free to politely debate the ratings or implications of any particular spell if you feel you have some new insight.

    You are welcome @Scalanex , it is no trouble. The notion that i am still writing can be deleted now i think? For the rest, i think this is one of the if not the most complete tactica on magic on the web now, well done to everybody who contributed.
