Quicksand is a direct damage spell with a range of 18". All models in the unit must take an Initiative test. Those that fail must then take an armour save. If passed, they are dragged down into the sand and are removed as casualties, with no save allowed. Models without armour count as passing on a 6. This spell has no effect on models with the Fly, Ethereal or Strider special rules. The Wizard can choose to extend the range of this spell to 36". If he they do, the casting value is increased to 14+.
