Thank you very much for your clarification, Richard!
I understand that there should be strong social and political deterrents against abusing RtHK.
We enforce that AotH must penetrate Might to be effective as a Ward in our saga, so we need to take these new spells into account when deciding what level the AotH should be for our Covenant. A higher level AotH will thus be more effective against magi, a moderate or lower will be a more effective Ward.
