The Summon Storm Power spell (the one you wanted to cast) only works during a Storm. It isn't cumulative with itself, but stacks with other spells increasing your magic paths. Since you are an Astral mage, there is a spell (Power of the Spheres if memory serves) which increase *all* your magic paths by one. I do not recall the school it is in though.

He said A1 spell to increase all magic levels by one. I think he means "Power of the Spheres". Not everyone starts out knowing that in this forum, A is for Air and S is for Astral. He might have thought that A is for Astral. Just a thought.

You have a point Deccan. I did go with the assumption that "A" stood for Air in his post, but as you said, there is no evidence about this.

If it was indeed "Power of the Spheres", your Great Enchanteress required an Astral gem to cast the spell; since she creates them automatically, she should have cast the spell (especially if it was her first spell; with Astral 6, she wouldn't have had too much fatigue either).

Yes sorry for the A for "air"!!! Indeed, she was a level 6 Astral mage. She had enough astral gems to cast it many times, but I guess I was lacking fire gems...but I thought I had enough...
Anyway, is the "Power of the spheres" cumulative??? I don't think so, but...
As to the "Returning" spell, how can I use it effectively??? Because maybe I can cast 4 offensive spells to boost my army, and then cast returning...but I guess I will miss her on the battlefield...
Oh, and BTW, Alneyan, I did receive your PM, I haven't read evrything yet, but thanks a lot!

no...I meant the A for "Astral"...
