Prior to 4th ed... An astral mage could ground a mana spell through a foci.
There's a lot in the Awakened world chapter that talks about casting mana spells at astral targets and that foci are astrally active and that you can cast spells at magical targets.... But I remember grounding spells through active foci in prior editions of Shadowrun... is that still something to be cautious about in SR4? |
