How the Potion of Magic Resistance works, is explained in page 272.
The problem here is that i didn't updated your sheets (links to photobucket) with the new card. That's my fault and we'll follow this scenario:

mitchiemasha drinks a

Witch Lord casts Fear on him. mitchiemasha rolls 1 combat die to resist the spell (he needs anything but a :blackshield:

)

Sotiris rolled 1 6-sided dice:

mitchiemasha resists the spell and he attacks the zombie

i'll roll the bonus dice rolls. longsword's 2 dice

Sotiris rolled 2 6-sided dice:

you may move now, if you want. Remember: Potion of Magic Resistance, Potion of Fire Resistance may be used only on your turn. (the fire resistance potion offers 100% resist but not against all spells. i'll update this card soon, so you can see which spells are fire based: fireburst trap, ball of flame, firestorm, command)

Sorry to derail the game thread with rules chat... The wording still doesn't work to your description/explination. As 'next' applies that I'd need to drink it before the spell was cast, in advance and I'd get a chance to defend the next spell cast on me. If we can drink it after, it needs different wording.

Therefore, as I haven't drank any I am under fear.

Are we saying that a hero could drink the potion at the start of the quest and if/when a spell is cast the hero could defend against it. That would make sense to me. Or, if a Hero didn't want to waste one in that Quest, wait til a castable character appears, then drink one, on the off chance It's cast upon them. This would then remove the ability to decide if the spell is worth defending, you'd obviously cast weaker spells first.

Exactly this is how it works. Whenever you drink it, it lasts until the end of the quest OR the next spell cast on you.

Which means it can't be drank after, it's too late so you didn't need to do the rerolls that you just did. Where you just undecided on how it should work but now you are, lol!

Thanx Gold Bearer.
mitchiemasha, check your underlined quoted post. I just followed this case without changing what i've decided until now.

Hence why I said "but you are now". As regardless to all these quotes I'm still unsure if I can, in future, drink a potion after a spell is cast on me and negate it's effect. Like we did. The new card suggests no, so have the rules changed to what we played??? if they are the same, the new card is wrong.

I'm not moving, I'm staying put. Sorry, I forgot to mention that.
