A Liche, Necromancer or Vampire with Necromancy spells is allowed to cast the same spell more than once during his magic phase. This is a special ability of Undead magic, and only applies to Necromancy spells.
The first time a spell is cast during the magic phase it works in the normal way. The Undead player may then attempt to cast the same spell again regardless of whether it worked or was dispelled. He does not necessarily recast the spell automatically, but must test to determine if he can. The chart below shows the D6 score needed for a wizard to recast a spell.
Undead WIzard | D6 Roll Required to recast spell |
Liche | Automatic |
Necromancer Lord | Automatic |
Master Necromancer | 2+ |
Necromancer Champion | 3+ |
Necromancer | 4+ |
Vampire Lord | 5+ |
Vampire Count | 6+ |
The wizard must expend further power cards to cast the spell for a second time and his opponent may attempt to counter it as normal. The wizard can continue to recast the same spell over and over again so long as he has power to do so, but he cannot cast the same spell successfully against the same target more than once. He cannot cast Vanhels Danse Macabre twice on the same unit for example. A spell which is dispelled when first cast can be recast onto the same target, but only because it was not successfully cast the first time round.
A player wishing to recast a spell must finish recasting it before he casts any others. This enables the player to keep track of which spells have been cast, which can be recast, and which cannot be recast.
