Default Re: Communions not working?

is that so, if you cast (in this order)

CM, then 4 mages with CS.. does that mean you just have slaves and no master?

So you can't cast Communion Master during the same turn that you cast Communion Slave, even if it comes after Communion Slave castings?

That is false, the order of slave/masters doesn't matter. There isn't enough detail in the original post to understand what happened, but that is definitely not it. Read my guide to communions for more information on how they work, it might shine some light on what happened.

Maybe he's expecting the masters to be visibly boosted? If you have 4 Communion Slaves and a 4S Master, the master doesn't display as 6S. However, he is still capable of casting 6S spells on the next turn.

It's really impossible to assess the problem without more data.

I see, the mages were boosted, but just didn't cast the spells for whatever reasons. Sigh.

How many levels of boosting did you need? How many slaves were alive when the mages tried to cast their spells?

Renojustin,

You started this thread to ask for advice about Communion and whether there's a bug. We need to know what "the mages" and "the spells" are in order to help.
