Cyclone Mage's damage is fixed to 15%, hit rate is also fixed, not matter the wash/TG/level/book.
(Require no book, no wash for attack)
When a cyclone hits a target (all enemies are targeted, but only ~25-30% hit/success rate), they lose 15% of their troops right before they attack for 3 rounds. Once a target is hit there is no stopping it, regardless of whether the mage lives or dies.
If a target is hit again when it is already in "poison/deserting" mode (purple fog):
The 3 rounds don't stack... but they do reset to 3 more rounds![[Image: smile.png]](http://forum.clapalong.com/images/smilies/smile.png)
Also, if the hero is stunned (by say a Thunderstorm, Thunderbolt, or Sunstorm mage) and in CHAOS, they don't lose any troops when its their turn... the CHAOS just expires and they skip a turn... but you also don't lose one of your 3 affects. So if you inflict CHAOS and DESERTING at the same time, the chaos happens first... then 3 rounds of deserting after that.
