@@ -5,6 +5,33 @@ All notable changes to the **HbM RPG v3** Foundry VTT system.
 The format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/) and
 this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
 
+## [Unreleased] - 2026-10 sync (partial, Foundry Sync Brief 2026-10-26)
+
+### Added
+- Casting penalties from armour: Średni −1 die, Ciężki −3 dice and +2 Mana (also overcast), Tarcza −1 die (stacks); Pancerz Wiary removes armour but not shield penalties. Gear flag `armor.ignoresCastingPenalty` for special-case armour.
+- Every spell, sacred ones included, can be cast as a regular spell or as a prayer (cast dialog "Sposób rzucenia"). Prayer = Dusza + Oddanie, Mana + 1 Zapał; sacred spells default to prayer.
+- `damageCategory` spell flag: +1 damage for category Obrażenia (off by default; vault frontmatter has no category yet).
+- `runic` spell school (alias of the `runes` discipline for the discipline gate).
+- Pure helpers in `rules.ts`: `golemLimit`, `fallDamage`, `survivalTest`, `zealRegenBlocked`, `madnessThreshold` (not all wired yet).
+- Characters have `mentalIllnesses`.
+
+### Changed
+- Wiedźmia Magia: Poziom Skomplikowania = number of Symbols; `complexityLevel` removed from spells.
+- Hartowany w Ogniu: flat −2 per fire hit (min 0) instead of halving.
+- Próg Obłędu = Dusza + 3 (Krasnolud +1); reaching it resets Punkty Obłędu and rolls the illness k100. Replaces the old 3/6/10/15 thresholds.
+
+## [1.5.2] - 2026-10-26
+
+### Fixed
+- A character with the discipline Magia Sakralna - Egzorcyzmy (`sacredExorcism`) is now treated as a Sacred Magic caster in the spell discipline gate. Before, it only matched its own id, so exorcists failed the requirement for Sacred spells. The match is one-way: a plain Sacred mage is not an exorcist.
+- The "new round" chat message and README no longer claim that Mana is reset. Mana is a daily pool in the vault and has not been reset per round since 1.3.x; the message now says which counters really reset.
+
+### Added
+- Spell cast dialog has a **Modyfikator liczby kości** (dice modifier, +/-). It changes the number of dice in the casting test for every casting mode (standard, sacred, witch, blood, prayer); the pool never drops below 0. The over-limit Nadczarowanie test uses the same modified pool. API: `CastOptions.diceModifier`, `applyDiceModifier()` in `rules.ts`.
+
+### Changed
+- English text "Cannot be unraveled" is now "Cannot be dispelled" on the spell cast card.
+
 ## [1.5.1] - 2026-10-22

 - **Derived stats** - `health.max = 3 × (body + mind + soul)`, `zeal.max = ceil(soul/2)`, initiative pool, mana table lookup (Magic Power Level 0–X), blood pool (`body + soul`), elixir tolerance cap (`body + 1`), insanity counter.
 - **4-layer damage model** - Magical Armor (with runic counter) → Magical Shield → Physical Armor (DR + condition) → Health. `Apply Damage` dialog with bypass flags; auto-applies `Oszołomiony` on heavy HP loss.

 - **Spell-cast workflow** - `validateCast()` gates on resources / race / talent / discipline / deity / group / inCombat / superspell / witch-symbol; dispatcher routes to standard / Sacred / Witch / Blood / Hekate hybrid; `rollSpellDamage()` parses formula tokens; reactive triggers (`killWithWeapon`, `targetCastsSpell`, `damageTaken`, `turnStart`).
 - **Cast dialog** - mana / zeal / blood inputs, group-caster picker, Hekate toggle, GM bypass checkboxes (superspell, non-combat block), inline validation feedback.
 - **Mechanics modules** (`game.hbm.*`) - `bloodMagic` (Self-Harm, Life Steal, talent integration), `abyssMagic` (Aspects vs Primal, Mistrz Losu penalty, `Dary Otchłani`, insanity gain), `brewing` (TS test + tolerance counter), `rest` (short / long), `trade` (founding company workflow, transactions, smuggling).
