Stream of Corruption: Uttering glottal curses, the Sorcerer unleashes a torrent of bile and brackish filth upon their enemies.
Stream of Corruption is a spell with a casting value of 6 and a range of 7". If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within range and visible to the caster. Roll 1 dice for each model in that unit that is within range of the caster. For each 5+, that unit suffers 1 mortal wound.
Before attempting to cast this spell, you can say that the caster will project the stream across a greater distance. If you do so, the spell has a range of 14" but only inflicts 1 mortal wound for each roll of 6 instead of each roll of 5+.

19.1 Casting Spells
In your hero phase, you can attempt to cast spells with friendly WIZARDS. You cannot attempt to cast the same spell more than once in the same hero phase, even with a different WIZARD. In order to attempt to cast a spell, pick a friendly WIZARD, say which of the spells that they know will be attempted, and then make a casting roll by rolling 2D6. If the casting roll is equal to or greater than the casting value of the spell, the spell is successfully cast.
19.1.2 Unbinding Spells
If a spell is successfully cast, your opponent can pick 1 of their WIZARDS that is within 30" of the caster to attempt to unbind the spell before its effects are applied. In order to attempt to unbind a spell, first say which WIZARD will attempt to unbind it. Then make an unbinding roll by rolling 2D6. If the unbinding roll is greater than the roll used to cast the spell, then the spell is unbound and its effects are not applied. The number of spells a WIZARD can attempt to unbind is noted on their warscroll. Only 1 unbinding attempt can be made for each spell.
