How are the old Red magic spells used with the new system?
The trick here is realizing that, in the new system, you “pre-spend” all of your spell points. Therefore, there must be some way for you to indicate just how many points you’re spending when you select a spell. Use the following approach: When selecting an “Old” spell, you must specify at what level it is being cast (on a separate slip of paper or some other convenient reminder), or for things like fireball, how many spell points are being put into it prior to the start of the combat. That way, you still pre-select your spells. If trying to use an old mage with the new spells, use the following conversion: 3 spell points or less = Minor Magic 4-6 spell points = Major Magic 7 or more spell points = Great Magic Note that, eventually, most of the “old” spells will be issued in the new, smaller card format.
