After my plot ends the Bombs will lose their AoE property and become a targeted attack. As for Blow up in her face, Eh, Bombs were once the property of a fairly insane alchemist. So yeah.

Oh, If the Damage on one of them is 1d20, then 1d20 AOE. THey hit all targets and don't really have a epicenter.

because summoning is super unbalanced. Either the summons are way too strong or too weak, nobody sane would want to play this

I think that summons should be stat based on how much mana is put into them, then divide MAG by something to get the number of turns they last.

Like the formulas would be:

Stat=MPx2
Duration=MAG/4

And then you can take perks that let your MP add an extra point to the Summons stats. or increases the Duration by like 3 turns. Or something.

that would be too cost expensive for the stats I think. Even with mana*4 it would be very expensive

That's why we need mana regen during combat. Slow. Maybe like 2 mana a turn or somerthing, but Summons should be powerful creations that fight by your side or help you do things.

I dont think we should change rules, to accomodate summoning rules, and instead just tweak the summoning rules

We could always have summons be predefined instead of this mutable stats nonsense, and then balance mana costs/TNs off of that with occassional boosts in power as the characters level up. It'd be a less flexible system, but more easy to balance. Maybe throw in some limit to maintain summons so that they don't swarm everything and they'd be good or at least passable.

I also endorse this idea. Summons should be unique, at least a little bit.

Or we remove combat all together. That would indeed solve all many of our problems, though I think that it'll introduce many more too.

Alternatively, as Sanure put it so eloquently,
