Magic Items

Magic items are sorted into varying categories, though all types have some things in common.

Magical Weapons

Every magical weapon has an aura that can be sensed as magical by any wizard that touches it.
Magical weapons can damage creatures that cannot be harmed by normal weapons.
Magical melee weapons dispell Auras on hit, ranged magical weapons do not.
The effects of magical weapons cannot be avoided with Magic Saving Throws.
Magical Weapons may have multiple effects.

Magical Missiles and Ranged Weapons

Each magical missile conveys enough arrows or other missiles for a single model to not run out during battle.
Where units are equipped with magical arrows, all must be equipped for the unit to gain their benefit.
Some missiles are called out as having a single use, as they are a singular arrow.
Magical Missiles have only a single property. Ranged weapons may have more.

Scrolls

A scroll holds a spell of any level.
Scrolls cost 1 MP to use.
Scrolls never require a test to use successfully.
Scrolls are destroyed on use.
A wizard can only read a scroll if they know at least one spell of that type.
A wizard may carry up to four scrolls.
The spell stored on a scroll is determined randomly from those available to the army.

Rings

A ring holds a spell of any level.
The spell stored is chosen upon creation rather than rolled randomly.
The first time a ring is used, roll 1d6. On a 6, it instead contains a random spell of the same type and level.
The second and any subsequent times that a character model attempts to cast a spell from the same ring in battle, roll a d6. On a 6, the spell fails and the ring ceases to function for that battle.

Magical Standards

Casting dispel magic on a magical standard removes one of its abilities for the remainder of battle. If a standard has the Protective Magic ability, then a magic saving throw of 10 is allowed. If the standard has more than one ability, determine which ability is removed randomly.
If a magical standard is captured in battle, its abilities are lost permenantly. If the standard is recaptured by its original owner, it regains its magical ability in subsequent games.
Unit Standards may have a single ability, while Army standards may have up to three abilities.
