I need a quick clarification on Magical(Hermetic) Libraries:

Quoting(!) from the SRII manual:

Cost is Force X Force X 1000Y for the cheapest version- CD-Rom I
believe.

It also says in the magic/hermetic section: a hermetic mage requires
conjuring, sorcery, and magical theory libraries. It talks about the
amount of space required for that library, the storage types
available, and possible costs.

What I'm unclear on is, using their example of a Rating 6 library
costing 36,000Y by the above formula, is that for all three libraries
or just one? Would I get sorcery for that cost then have to outlay
another 72K to get the remaining two?

Us poor mages need to know! ;)

Thanks,


Gregory Reade

That cost is for just the Sorcery library. The others will cost the same
again for rating 6 libraries.

you already do :)

ITs just that the truth really sucks in this case.

its 36K for EACH rating 6 library.


Shamans - right here right now type stuff

Mages - they can prepare better and get spell help from elementals
- but IT COSTS LOADS OF MONEY.
