The early editions of WFB made all Wizards at least a Level One Battle Magic Wizard, and this tradition continues in WFRP. Page 138 in the WFRP book states that “A Wizard who has fully completed a level 1 career may choose to specialise in another field of magic instead of becoming a level 2 Wizard.” Furthermore, the Wizard’s Apprentice allows access only to the Wizard career, not any specializations, and the only Career Entries listed for the Specialist Wizards (other than Alchemist) are Wizard, rather than Wizard’s Apprentice. So in order to become a specialist Wizard, one must pass through Battle Magic Wizard Level One.
