    Description

    Magus: Aura Mortis is a re-implementation of Magus: Fortuna et nostis. In Magus, the players embody powerful sorcerers who send heroes under their control to plunder the castle of Ardeth, their mentor, as they crave the treasures and secrets that are hidden there.
    In a game the players must fulfill missions and different objectives until obtaining 10 dominion points and thus to proclaim the new lord of the castle. In addition to controlling a hero, the player has spells at his disposal with which he can alter the very structure of the castle.
    In a Magus turn, a player can perform up to 2 normal actions (move, attack, play spells, among others) and any number of quick actions (use knowledge, advance missions, use relics, etc.) Each action has a cost that must be paid with energy from one of the two existing wells: Well of power (Green) and Well of control (purple). As the game progresses players will gain energy that they can freely assign to their power or control reserve as needed for one or the other action.
    The Magus main play mode is competitive, each player will try to reach before the rest to the 10 dominion points using his hero and his spells to delay the advance of enemies. But there is also the cooperative mode, in which players must defeat the powerful archmage Ardeth. For this they must travel the castle accomplishing different objectives that reduce the dominion of the archmage before he arrives at the castle for the final combat.
    In cooperative mode, the Dominion points are the way of measuring Ardeth's strength, which players must reduce as much as possible whilst preparing for his arrival. When the archmage appears in the castle players must face him, and the life of Ardeth will be determined by the dominion gained at the moment of his appearance.


    Magus: Aura Mortis es una reimplementación de Magus: "Fortuna et nostis". En Magus los jugadores encarnan a poderosos hechiceros que envían a héroes bajo su control a saquear el castillo de Ardeth, su mentor, ya que ansían los tesoros y secretos que allí se esconden.
    En una partida los jugadores deberán cumplir misiones y distintos objetivos hasta conseguir 10 puntos de dominio y así proclamarse el nuevo señor del castillo. Ademas de controlar a un héroe, el jugador tiene conjuros a su disposición con los que podrá alterar la estructura misma del castillo.
    En un turno de Magus un jugador puede realizar hasta 2 acciones normales (mover, atacar, jugar conjuros, entre otras) y cualquier cantidad de acciones rápidas (usar saberes, avanzar misiones, usar reliquias, entre otras. Cada acción tiene un costo que debe ser pagado siempre fichas de energía de alguno de los dos tipos existentes. Existe la energía de poder (de color verde) y la energía de control (de color violeta. A medida que avanza la partida los jugadores irán ganando energía que podrán asignar libremente a su reserva de poder o de control según la necesitar para una u otra acción.
    El modo principal de juego de Magus es competitivo, cada jugador intentará llegar antes que el resto a los 10 puntos de dominio valiéndose de su héroe y sus conjuros para retrasar el avance de sus enemigos. Pero también existe el modo cooperativo, aquí los jugadores deben derrotar al poderoso archimago Ardeth. Para ello deben recorrer el castillo cumpliendo distintos objetivos que reduzcan el dominio del archimago antes de que este llegue al castillo para el combate final.
    En el modo cooperativo los puntos de dominio miden la fuerza de Ardeth, y los jugadores deben reducirlo lo mas posible mientras se preparan para su llegada. Cuando el archimago aparece en el castillo deben enfrentarlo, y la vida de Ardeth estará determinada por la dominio acumulado al momento de su aparición.
