"Since the time of Sigmar Himself, we have been no more than a flicketing beacon of hope amidst a sea of despair and corruption, but never before have we faced so many dangers. We must suffer the simple-minded liberalism of our burgomeisters, the sactioning of magic use, the heresy of false prophets and religions, the arrogance of the Arch-lectors and the convulted plots of the Dark Gods - the rot has sunk deep into the flesh of the Empire, where even now it festers and grows"

Awesome post again, btw, Bies!

2 · Disagree AgreeYeah, it could be but I feel if you had it out for someone despite being a wealthy nobleman that filled your coffers you'd just choose one other ones which are far more painful and certain.

0 · Disagree AgreeThe others are all rigged in the sense that you'd practically need a miracle to pass (although depending on the specifics, the trial by hammer and the first trial by fire might be easier to pass), but in each case, short of actual magic or divine intervention, it's largely random on whether the accused passes. Trial by cake allows it to be selective.
One could imagine, for instance, a situation where multiple people are accused. It would be too obviously rigged if some got the trial by cake and others got the trial by water. But they could give them all trial by cake, but the Witch Hunters have very carefully placed the inedible cakes.
