To be able to cast steal breath with a duration of 1 day, you need 9 points of Intensity, just for the duration, which means minimum 9 points of Free INT. To cast 'Enhance INT' for long duration, you need lots of MP (that 'Steal Breath' can provide) AND lot of Free INT: To cast 'Enhance INT' for a duration of 1 week, with a STR enough to add 3 points of INT, you need a duration of 12 and a strength of 9, meaning a Free INT of 21. I am not counting the amount of MP needed to do it, but it is high. You can try to attack a dream dragon with it (I agree he should be affected), but just try to win the POW vs POW (when used as an attack vs a person/creature).

This is how I play it.

For me, the answer is yes on all 3 points.

His comment was about 30 Miles (around 50km) with full pack (meaning in France 30 kg, around 65 lbs). This is doable. Difficult, but doable but you don't repeat it and you need rest after that. The normal march was around 20 to 30 km. And you either don't carry the full pack, or you don't go the full length.

Neither is Basel (for 100m).

Same for my elder son. I purchased French RQG so he can try it with his friends, and zap.

In France, a lot of toll points were on bridges or in narrow valley. Close to where I leave is a town named 'Peage de Vizille'. That means 'Vizille's toll'. This was where the tolls were payed, at the narrowest point of the Oisans's valley.

You are even below what was the situation up to roughly 15th century and only royal envoy (with merchandise/cargo/weapons/luxuries) could travel freely, but it improved slightly after that. 18th century was a period of trade for France. The revolution canceled this but the country was in terrible turmoil, so almost all trade was local or short ranged. 1st empire was also a great period of trade (and wars, but this is another matter).

I seem to remember that Lady Vega Goldbreath had to divorce. I don't remember if it was in 'Sun County' or in 'River of Cradles'.

You also have in 'Strangers in Prax' that Lunar authorities allowed a 'diluted' form of air-worship under Faltikus's direction.

The rule concerns humans. We have to wait for official Aldriamy rule, bu I would say no (except of course with Heroquest/Magic,/...).

This is exactly how I have understood it (and how we play it).

This is not how I understand it. I may be wrong. I read it the same way as you.

Also depends on Battle skill outcomes (Specials and Criticals bring an extra POW experience check).

Yes, and this is very efficient. But the cost in MP for the spells you are casting afterwards using said raised INT are truly horrendous.

Yes. What I have understood is that the Tapping technique brings a chaos mark (and is forbidden for most sorcery using cultures), but that you can cast spells by inferred techniques, doubling the MP cost, without learning the technique. Of course, some people will not care about the mark, but for most, this may allow for some use.

With a physical object like the staff, SIZ does not have to be created (assuming RQ3 rules). It already had SIZ 1. I once saw a possessed herdman. You just need to add 1 point to any stat to have a familiar. The player (obviously) choosed 1 POW. The same player wanted to do it again on a Vampire (only POW is to be created), but the GM never let a vampire be captured.

Completely agree.

The problem is more for Yelmalio that Ernalda also has Argan Argar as Husband Protector, not that she also dated Yelm.

In mine, they can (or could, if familiars are brought back).

This idea I like a lot. Thanks.

Rule is 1 full round, plus 1SR/MP.

Paris (France, not Texas) is 53,188 hab/sq mi (20,544 hab/sq km in 2021). Imperial Rome was said to be 1385 ha for 300,000 to 1,000,000 inhabitants (depending on sources, Marc Bloch giving 255,000). That gives us 21,600 hab/sq km or 56,000 hab/sq mi (for 300,000 hab). This is equivalent to current Paris (that has lost 1,000,000 inhabitants in 1 century), and required a whole country and part of an empire to be fed. Around 400BC, Athens was roughly 160,000 inhabitants (including slaves) for roughly 3.5 sq km for 45,700 hab/sq km or 118,350 hab/sq mi. This is more than twice as densely populated as current Paris, and required whole Attica to be fed.

The CHA limit is the number of RP you may have, not the number of rune spells you may know. Once you get to the limit, you still may learn spells, but get no new RP. In addition, you may loose RP, either by DI or using 1 use spells.

I have both and have seen no other differences in skills. There are some other small points, like the 'poor' occupations may have 2 family heirloom as an optional rule.
