[QUOTE="phloog, post: 4487017, member: 59219"] Quick question on Elements of Magic. I am 95% sure I understand it, but just in case. A) I cast Illusion Light and create the illusion of a man. I spend nothing on range or area of effect. The man illusion sits in the 5' square in front of me doing his thang. I then move away....does the illusion vanish, or does it stay in its original casting spot, or something else? B) I cast the same spell but would like the man to walk away from me. I need to purchase AREA, correct? NOT Range? This one is odd because he still takes up the same area, but needs to move about. But my thinking is that range is about initial position of effect, and area about where it can roam/impact. C) I have access to Move Force and apply it to this spell instead. How do I determine where I can move the illusion? Do I pick a range for Move Force and I can move it anywhere within range of me (which tends to go against my thinking on range = solely initial position)? Or do I pick an area of effect and can move it within that? (but then can't I use Move Force on my Move Force to move that area?) Or is it the simpler answer that 'with Move Force I can move it anywhere within sight?' [/QUOTE]
