Spell Making Session 01 Winner: Frost Spear and Snow Storm

My spells for the first spell making session, you can get more information about that here.

Both spells follows the JESP Standard and uses the Caster System.

Frost Spear
Zoom (requires log in)
Creates a frost spear that deals damage to and freezes all enemy units in it's way.

Snow Storm
Zoom (requires log in)
Creates a snow storm at a targeted point. The snow storm deals damage to enemy units and increases the armor of allies.

Combo effect
Zoom (requires log in)
When a frost spear flies under a snow storm, the original spear is destroyed.
However, multiple spears of the same level as the original spear are then created (this means that if an enemy casts frost spear into your snow storm, you will get bounty and experience for the frost spears created then, it kind of steals the spell powers. If it is your own spear, the effects will just be multiplied).

Comments are welcome.

If I just wanted the Frost Spear ability and copied the frost spear trigger and other needed req.
Will I be taking some triggers need for the synergy as well?

Just want to minimise space used.

As far as I remember, both of them shoudl work without the other spell in the map. There will be a few extra things (like configuration functions) that aren't needed if you just copy one of them, but it isn't something big.

Having just the one trigger should work fine.

EDIT: I might update the map to include version that has nothing to do with each other aswell, I will probably do that tomorrow or so.

....
but if you cast snowstorm several times at the same position, you'll get several Frostspears in each direction which do massive damage.
...
and if you use snow storm within a few seconds more than 10 times with many units in it's range, the game freezes.

All in all: Amazing spells!

NIce ones, the thing is, you can put the snow storm as traps, cause the arrows that come out of the combo triggers the splitting effect as well!! Nice work blade

this spell description you made sounds VERY interesting...I'll definitely be seeing about what I can learn from the spell combination, in particular.

edit: the spell appears to be pre 1.24 i'll need to get someone to help me fix it i guess...
