S Shadow Queen Mongoose Aug 15, 2007 #1 Can 'casters cast spells in armour?? one guy in the club wants to be a necromancer .....
M Mage Mongoose Aug 15, 2007 #2 I am fairly sure they can, but I believe off hand that the rune casting ability would suffer from an armour penalty.

The rulebook p38 says "The Skill Penalty applies to tests with most skills that use the DEX characteristic [...] plus some other skills". Sleight is not punished, for example, (too small a motion?) but Runecasting, Unarmed and Craft, all non-DEX, are penalised.

W weasel_fierce Mongoose Aug 16, 2007 #6 other than skill penalties, there's nothing preventing you from casting spells in armour.
