Howdy,

One of my players posed an interesting question to me on Saturday after
our game. He said to me "Scott, what is the difference between a ball type
spell and the cloud spell in the Grimthingy?" Being the knowledgeable GM
that I was I said, "well um...er, well one is a ball and the other is a
cloud!!! Yea that's it. Anyone have a reasonable answer for me?

Also

How is the Ram spell and it's like resolved using the rigger2 rules for
magic against Vehicles?

Thanks,
Scott

The only difference (or at least - only stated difference) is the damage
code; Foocloud spells have a damage code of Medium, Fooball starts at
Serious. Otherwise, both have the same area of effect and so on.
