-Glamour in combat does the same thing as the **??Mirror Image??** spell. It projects an equal image of the bearer right next to them. For those with not enough Glamour [[magic]] skill to have {{path>G1}} (and/or for troops), they project **one** image. For those who //do// have levels, they project **two per level**.+Glamour in combat does the same thing as the **??Mirror Image??** spell. It projects an equal image of the bearer right next to them.

 Mirror Images essentially divide the chance to be hit across every image. For example, troops with Glamour have only a 50% chance to be hit. {{path>G1}} mages would have only a one-in-three chance to be hit, {{path>G2}} mages would have only a one-in-five chance to be hit, and so on. Mirror Images essentially divide the chance to be hit across every image.

 In Dominions 5, Glamour abruptly ended in battle once the user **took even a single point of damage**, as long as it wasn't incidental damage from [[Bless#Blood-Effects|Blood Bond]] or Blood Vengeance. It also only protected against **melee hits**. Thus, short-ranged [[precision#missile-combat|missile combat]] and area-of-effect magic were typical counters against the glamourous. In Dominions 5, Glamour abruptly ended in battle once the user **took even a single point of damage**, as long as it wasn't incidental damage from [[Bless#Blood-Effects|Blood Bond]] or Blood Vengeance.

-In Dominions 6, each individual image persists until it is struck. It is not yet clear if hits that do zero damage, such as shield hits, break images. It is not yet clear if images now protect against missile hits, though it definitely doesn't protect against [[Mindless|mind-attacking]] spells. In all likelihood, area-of-effect magic will hit all images (and the image-maker). Regardless, rather than working in an "all-or-nothing" manner with the possibility of infinite survival, Glamour now has a maximum amount of successful hits to "negate" each battle (but doesn't disappear all at once).+In Dominions 6, each individual image persists **until it takes a single point of damage**.
