I could see that happening. We would ALL have to start all over. It's too late to make such fundamental changes to the game's core. Because the changes would effect everyone's characters. They would have to provide custom patches to each and every player for each and every save file those players have. Not even a worldwide corporation would bother doing that.

But such things can be done in a sequel game... which is basically what the topic of this thread is becoming. Even though we should not be thinking of sequels until after the first is finished, it's still good that we have a thread to throw out such ideas so when the time is right, we have ideas to work with.

What about an skill like the way of the wizard, you gain this skill by completing a quest and this enable an specific shop/ and or merchants that sells magics, the magic (the icon can be an scroll) occupies the 2 weapon slot but they never miss and they give negative BC (to make your frail), spell not only give damage but negative effects to enemies, spells that cost high AP cause more negative effects (and for more turns) and spell that cost low AP only cause 1 or none negative effect, maybe passive magic occupies ring slot and give beneficial stats/buffs (to balance they make attack costs go up, something like atk cost +2 AP, atk cost +3 AP, depending of how good the stas/buff is), this way something like an spell seeing as broken can only be used 1 time per turn if used with a passive spell.

The game engine does not and will not support magic as a weapon. Sorry.

Not only that - there are some basic rules for the Andor's Trail world, defined by the original creator. One of these is: No magic, and we respect it.

As it was conveyed in the Book of Andor, Ghospel 5, Verse 3:

Thou shalt not use any magic…
