 ===== Magic: Common Mechanisms =====
-More to be written
+~~NOTOC~~
+The most effective magic is **Ritual Magic**. Each nation can only cast one ritual spell during the magic phase per turn and a wizard must be freed up to lead this ritual. You cannot be involved in delicate diplomacy **and** coordinate a magic ritual that may have over a 100 participants **at the same time**.
+Ritual magic is either tactical turn ritual magic or strategic turn  ritual magic.
+There is also minor **Personal Magic** to give wizards a bit of private fun during the roleplaying parts of a turn.
+==== Ritual Magic ====
+These are massive magical rituals that require dozens of participants, multiple hours and tons of incense. A team/nation can cast only 1 ritual spell per turn. There are separate Tactical and Strategic ritual spells. Some spells exist that can be cast in both types of turns.
-The important magic is **Ritual Magic**. Each nation can only cast 1 ritual spell during the magic phase each turn, a wizard must be freed up to lead this ritual. You can't be both involved in delicate diplomacy and coördinate a magic ritual that may have over a 100 participants at the same time.
+cards are drawn from a deck of cards (the spell deck). A wizard who adds nice touches or theatrics in the description of the magic ritual may draw an extra card. If enough cards of he right colour are collected the spell works. Each card is 1 point. A Joker is usually an automatic point and sometimes signifies that the spell has gone haywire.
-There is separate  tactical turn ritual magic and strategic turn  ritual magic.
+__Effects can be made to appear anywhere on the map.__ If there are no cards available, nothing happens. The order in which spells are resolved is based on a first come, first served basis. At the start of every turn the discard pile is added back the spell deck. The deck is not reshuffled. This does not apply to cards stored in of the 2 Spell Batteries (the Ziggurat of Urr and the Grand Imperial Spell Throne of the Gnomes). Multiple teams can link up to cast one ritual spell together. Each team adds 5 cards to the spell. Only one team needs to know the spell.
-There is also minor **Personal Magic**, which is there to give wizards a bit of pizazz during the roleplay bits of the turn.
-**RITUAL MAGIC**
+==== Limited supply spells ====

+Some spells need the presence of special ingredients that are in limited supply, to be cast.

-Your presence cows and awes living beings. You seem to expand, looming over lesser beings, light sparkles in your eyes, shadows deepen across your brow and your voice booms with righteous authority.
