don’t really need to be able to see the target—you can

cast these spells blindfolded or with artificial image en-

hancement—as long as you’ve got a clear line of fire.

Single target spells are launched with an {{Test|Opposed Spellcasting + MAG [Force] vs. REA = INT Test}}, much like a ranged weapon attack, just with bullets made of acid, fire, or something equally unpleasant. The

Damage Value of a successful indirect combat spell is

Force + net hits, with an AP equal to –(Force). Damage

from an indirect combat spell is resisted with Body +

Armor (adjusted for the spell’s AP).

Area indirect spells travel from the magician to the point of detonation and then go boom. The test is like that for @PDF[SR5|page=181]{grenades}, a Spellcasting + Magic [Force] (3) Test with scatter of 2D6 meters. Unlike grenades, the net hits are added to the Damage Value of the spell, but only if you

beat the threshold; otherwise the spell still detonates, but

the hits are used to reduce scatter by one meter per hit..

0–STR x 2 To STR x 4 To STR x 6 To STR x 10

Ball Lightning creates and directs a vicious sphere energy that causes @JournalEntry[fkrpXHGXiaGqfG5Z]{Electricity} damage over an area.
