Saves vs missile damage:

4x Envoy: 2 ID, 3 Maneuver, 3 Melee, 3 Missile
3x Battle Rider: 2 ID, 3 Maneuver, 3 Maneuver
3x Runner 1 ID, 1 Save, 1 Maneuver

Saved all 6.


Yes I oppose:

4x Envoy: 2 ID, 2 ID, 2 Maneuver, 2 Missile
3x Battle Rider: 2 ID, 3 Maneuver, 2 Save
3x Runner: 1 ID, 1 Maneuver, 1 Save

So 13 maneuvers on the counter-roll.

[DialFforFunky]

Maneuver:


result: 4 maneuvers, attempt unsuccessful.

Action: Melee attack



result: 3 smite and 6 melee

Regardless of the counter-attack:

Reserve Phase:
Retreat: all dice from the frontier and your home to reserves.
Spell and effect expiration: none
End my turn

Okay, three Smite takes out a Battle Rider and a Runner. Saves against 6:

4x Envoy - 2 ID, 3 Melee, 3 Melee, 3 Maneuver
2x Battle Rider - 2 ID, 2 Melee
2x Runner- 1 ID, 1 ID

Wow, I'm rolling a lot of IDs today. Saved 6 and no counter attack.

March 1: Home, unopposed so bring in a Bridge and get: Double maneuvers. Nothing in range so I can't attack anything there.

March 2: Frontier also unopposed, so bring in a Knoll and get: Melee, useless. Again, nothing I can do with melee when I'm alone, so I guess that's it for me.

Reserves: All units at your home retreat to reserves.

[DialFforFunky]

My second turn:

Spell and effect expiration: none
Initial Effects Phase: none
Dragon Attack Phase: none


First March: @ reserves
Action: Magic




result: 6 green magic, 11 green/gold

8 gold - leaving
2 gold - camouflage on my nymph
6 green - 3x watery double on my home army

Second March: @ my home
Maneuver: yes, turn the terrain up to 7 unopposed
Action: none


Reserve Phase:
Reinforce: Nymph moves to your home, all mages move to my home
Spell and effect expiration: none
End my turn


Turn Sequence: Stormywaters, DialFforFunky

First March: Frontier

Roll Knoll: Melee
Turn terrain up to 5 - Melee


Second March: Home

Roll Bridge: ID - Double saves and maneuvers
Maneuver: 1 Maneuver, doubles to 2. Oppose?

[DialFforFunky]

Nothing to see here...

You'll have to choose between doubling saves or maneuvers though:

[chuckpint]

No, he choose to take doubling maneuvers and saves so every roll doubles both. Just on a maneuver roll, saves aren't good for anything.

BTW, don't forget that Treefolk get double maneuvers on a counter-maneuver. So you tied at 2 (which still won't stop him).

Edit: shouldn't the text in the parenthesis be "under the same conditions as the Double Saves and Double Maneuvers minor terrain icons"?
