Eh, Orb of Force.An NPC caster blasting from an AMF is great way to make the caster in the party appreciate the benefit of teammates.

I was wondering when Dandu was going to sneak in and unleash a one-liner into this conversation.Eh, Orb of Force.
...without Monte Cook, Skip Williams, or someone similar chiming in on the subject.
CorrectAnd, to point, you may be able to buff yourself in an AMF, but the buffing won't actually have any effect while you're in there.
There's been some debate on whether you can cast in an AMF. There is really no debate on whether spells affect anyone in an AMF though, including the caster.
The problem is that what Skip said runs 100% contrary to the written rules.
Throw a Fireball through an AMF and, as written, the spell will reach it's destination on the far side of the field. It just won't exist within the AMF.
According to Skip, however, the "line of effect" between caster and detonation point is interrupted by the AMF, and the spell fails.
So I'll have to say that Skip is wrong, in that his position runs directly contrary to what the rules actually say. It isn't a matter of interpretation, it's a matter of reading comprehension.
