Hmmm, odd

"An attack on every unit in the battlefield, including friendly units, doing 3 points of damage and ignoring armor. In addition, units must make a magic resistance roll at +4 to avoid becoming Crippled (recieving the Crippled affliction)."

Doesn't sound like flavor text to me. Did you try it with some +penetration?

No items. He was D9, so that's +1 penetration there, and it was Ulm after all... I expected to see *something* on at least a quarter of the units. Plenty of afflictions, no crippling on the 8 or 9 units I looked at.

Well, +1 penetration on a MR Easy check is still -3 and will only succeed 24% of the time on the DRN. So it's within the realm of possibility that you just missed them if you only checked 8 or 9.

Give it another shot, I say!

But, it's Ulm! They all have a magic resistance of 8. Even in a Drain dominion, which it probably was, they're resisting an MR Easy check on 12, which is +2 (since the MR resist is the "attacker" mathematically), which means 38% should be crippled.

I probably will give it another shot at some point, though. Could have been unlucky.
