To get into the Hero/God/spirit plane you have to overcome a resistance of Mastery3. This means that a Rune Lord or Priest (They have Mastery3 by definition) has a 50% chance of getting into the heroplane. On HH days etc. They get a support bonus making it near impossible to fail on special days.

I ran the Hero Wars intro game in Germany (Return to Apple Lane) recently. The magic was pretty straight forward, Except for some confusion over how healing works and that sorcery was far to leathal to the caster. Minor bugs only.
