As it turns out, The Druid is using Warp Magic, so it needs to be
setup like the Goblins. ie. Each spell is assigned to a specific unit
at design time. The Mist of Norka is therefore not something taken by
the Druid specifically, but more taken for each unit.
Here I was, trying to figure out a race attribute to do the
validation, when there's a perfectly good unit one
Thanks Rob, that's just what I was after. I know it may not be ideal,
but at least it'll be validated.
Russell.
