O.C.D. - Wiz-War

Welcome back to Obsessive Card Disorder. This time we are taking a look at Wiz-War by Fantasy Flight Games!

Wiz-War sets wizards in a magical labyrinth deep underground, which players build from maze sector boards. Each wizard has a home base and two treasures to defend within that home base. While other wizards seek to steal your treasures, your wizard must venture into the maze to steal their treasures, or destroy them.
To protect your treasures, make your way to your opponents’ treasures, and to fell those wizards you face in the maze, you draw spells from a spell deck and cast spells from your hand. Spells are divided into four types–attacks, counters, items, and neutrals–and each belongs to a school of magic:

• Cantrip: The cantrip school is a special school containing spells known by all wizards who enter the labyrinth.
• Alchemy: The school of Alchemy specializes in creating items. In particular, magic stones are a primary feature of alchemy.
• Conjuring: Conjurers are adept at creating inanimate objects, such as walls and thornbushes.
• Elemental: Of all the schools, Elemental is the most deadly in combat, containing as it does mighty fireballs and lightning blasts.
• Mentalism: Mentalism is the school of the mind. Using it, spells can be erased or even stolen from other wizards’ minds.
• Mutation: A wizard who has mastered the school of Mutation can change his shape as easily as his clothes.
• Thaumaturgy: The most ancient school of magic, thaumaturgy contains a well-balanced mix of traditional spells.

In Wiz-War, players build a spell deck from Cantrips and three other schools of magic. The rich interactions between the different schools of magic provide tremendous novelty for each new replay experience, and variant rules allow players to explore the interactions between spells in games with all the schools of magic combined into a single spell deck.
Each turn, your wizard can move, cast spells, and make a single attack. The rules are easy to learn, but with a little imagination, they can transport you to a fantastic underground labyrinth where wizards duel to steal each other’s treasure and exert their magical supremacy.

Review

What Else Is There? (Reviews) YouTube PlayList

So it has been a while from last time I did a video, but it is a busy time for me at the moment. I'll get back to it soon, but I might just do some small easy videos like the LoTR quest and reviews like this one.. When I get some time I'll do some more Lets Plays.

As for SMERCH I lost the files in a hdrive crash, so this will not be finished unfortunately. There was some real problem in that playthough so probably for the best.. I'll be adding it to my "replay" list.

Anyway... see ya soon.. and hope you like the change in pace that is coming to the channel for the next few months as I am busy with a work project and expect reviews and short playthroughs... until I have more time and then I'll go back to longer Lets Plays!

Have Fun and ROLL HIGH!
