ok, resolving the flaming arrow first...

Necromancer-4 Cantrip

Naturally, so he casts a spell as he dies...

Summon a Death DragonScout to that army.

Save against burial

Necromancer-3 ID

so he is just 'dead'.

Now three of the necromancers(*) have flaming armour on them, saving against 40 missile damage

*Necromancer-3 Melee
*Necromancer-3 Melee
*Necromancer-4 Cantrip
Necromancer-2 Save
Necromancer-4 Cantrip
Infiltrator-5 Melee
Infiltrator-4 Counter
Infiltrator-3 ID
Wyvern Rider-3 ID
Scorpion Knight-2 Maneuver
Scorpion Knight-2 Save
Spider Rider-1 Melee
Spider Rider-2 Maneuver
Death Dragonscout-1 ID

so... the three flaming armours remain
8 cantrip
19 saves (including racial ability and subtracting the ashstorm and including the dkin autosave)

8= 6 + 2
so an opengrave and ash2ash your amazon common in the DUA.

40-19 = 21 damage

5 necromancers + 2 scorpion knights + 2 spider riders will move to reserves via the open grave. (leaving the 3 Infiltrators and Wyvern rider at the terrain)

Does that all look resolved correctly to you?
My turn will be fast, but I don't want to get too far ahead.

Sure. Sounds good.

ok, after my turn we will update the board just to make sure it all looks right and nothing got missed.

start of turn, the opengrave expires (the three flaming armours remain)

First march, reserves magic.

Necromancer-2 Magic
Necromancer-2 Save
Necromancer-2 Magic
Necromancer-2 Magic
Necromancer-2 Magic
Scorpion Knight-2 Maneuver
Scorpion Knight-2 Maneuver
Spider Rider-1 Melee
Spider Rider-1 Maneuver

8 magic

So no real option but to cast the open grave on my other army and let two magic go away.

Second march, unopposed turn up to 7

reinforce all units to the highland.

Take your second free shot Wink

EOT

Turtle power activate!

Alright then, I'll cast magic again.

Oracle: 5 Magic
Oracle: 4 Magic
Oracle: 2 Save
Visionary: 4 Magic
Visionary: 2 Magic
Visionary: 2 ID
Seer: 1 ID
Seer: 2 Magic

So 20 this time around. I guess we'll go for... Dancing Lights to you, and summon both your dragons on your army.

My Scalders will just turn up to a 6.

Here is the board:

Error. I can't seem to drag any dice from the side bar onto the board. I'm trying to update your terrain to 7, and it won't do anything.

Turn Sequence: Cliff, Stormywaters

	*****************	**	*****************	**	*****************	*****************
	Cliff BUA		Cliff DUA		Cliff Reserve Army	Cliff Summoning Pool
*
	Cliff		Cliff		Cliff Home Army Dancing Lights 3x Flaming Armor on Necromancers
	Stormywaters's Home		Frontier Feyland Grove 6th Face: Melee		Cliff's Home Highland Standing Stones 7th Face: Melee
	Stormywaters Home Army		Stormywaters Flaming Spears Flaming Spears		Stormywaters

are you planning to turle as well Cool

BTW I didn't call it out when saving against the dragon, but the 3 necromancers still have their flaming armour.

I'm sitting on an 8th, so I have to cast magic.
Necromancer-4 Cantrip
Necromancer-3 Melee
Necromancer-2 Magic
Necromancer-3 ID
Necromancer-2 Save
Scorpion Knight-2 Maneuver
Scorpion Knight-1 Melee
Spider Rider-1 ID
Spider Rider-1 ID
Infiltrator-3 ID
Infiltrator-4 Counter
Infiltrator-3 ID
Wyvern Rider-4 Melee

Cantrip - 4
Magic - 2
ID - 3+1+1+3+3

13 magic gets reduced to 6 ID's plus the cantrip

16 red or 13 black (can only double 3ID's)

decisions, decisions,

16 red = 5 fearful flames.

target two uncommon amazons and one common amazon. (save vs death)

I have to stay turtled until I see what you do.

(we are settling into a pattern, but its not unbreakable)

EOT.

You beat me to it, but yes it does and starting next turn it will begin to unbury as well.

so only 3 magic. bring back the common instead of the uncommon?

D'oh! You're right!

Here's a corrected board:

Turn Sequence: Cliff, Stormywaters

	*****************	**	*****************	**	*****************	*****************
	Cliff BUA		Cliff DUA		Cliff Reserve Army	Cliff Summoning Pool
*
	Cliff		Cliff		Cliff Home Army Flaming Armor Flaming Armor Flaming Armor

	Stormywaters Reserve Army		Stormywaters Summoning Pool		Stormywaters DUA	Stormywaters BUA

I hate dragons...

roll for magic at the 8th.
Necromancer-3 ID
Necromancer-2 Magic
Necromancer-2 Save
Necromancer-3 ID
Necromancer-3 Melee
Scorpion Knight-2 Save
Scorpion Knight-1 Melee
Spider Rider-1 Melee
Spider Rider-2 Maneuver
Infiltrator-5 Maneuver
Infiltrator-5 Melee
Infiltrator-1 Melee
Wyvern Rider-1 Fly

ID - 3 +3
Magic -2

so 14 red.

what I do will affect what you do...

ok, I will admit, this is a pure turtle move design to stall the game for one turn until I get to roll again.

6 for a dancing lights on your army.
6 to cast fearful flames on both your common amazons
2 for an ashstorm at the frontier.

no reserves

EOT

Roll against FF: 1 ID, 1 Magic. One dead, one to reserves (failed second save).

Start of turn, unbury my buried Seer.

Oracle: 3 ID
Oracle: 4 Magic
Oracle: 3 Cantrip
Visionary: 4 Magic
Visionary: 2 ID

Blazer: 3 ID
Blazer: 3 ID
Blazer: 6 Missile
Burner: 2 ID
Burner: 3 Missile
Burner: 1 Maneuver
Glower: 1 Missile
Glower: 1 Maneuver

So that gives me 21 + 3 Cantrip. Subtract 1 for Ash Storm, halve the 20, I've got 10 + 3 Cantrip. Using all Amazon magic:

6 for Dancing Lights on your home army, 6 to bring back two Seers. No second march. Seer returns from reserves. Your turn.

Turn Sequence: Cliff, Stormywaters

	*****************	**	*****************	**	*****************	*****************
	Cliff BUA		Cliff DUA		Cliff Reserve Army	Cliff Summoning Pool

	Cliff		Cliff		Cliff Home Army Dancing Lights Flaming Armor Flaming Armor Flaming Armor
	Stormywaters's Home		Frontier		Cliff's Home
	Stormywaters Home Army		Stormywaters		Stormywaters

	Stormywaters Reserve Army		Stormywaters Summoning Pool		Stormywaters DUA	Stormywaters BUA

Rinse and repeat eh?

Necromancer-3 Melee
Necromancer-5 Magic
Necromancer-2 Magic
Necromancer-3 ID
Necromancer-3 ID
Scorpion Knight-1 Melee
Scorpion Knight-1 Melee
Spider Rider-1 Melee
Spider Rider-1 ID
Infiltrator-5 Melee
Infiltrator-4 Counter
Infiltrator-5 Melee
Wyvern Rider-3 ID

20 magic which halves to 10 (all ID's) which can double to 20 red.

this grove is annoying...

trust the dragons again? what are the odds they can roll double belly AGAIN? for me too good just yet.

I really need a clear turn, but getting you below 6 magic ain't gonna be easy...

6 = dancing lights
9 = 3*3 = spark of life for my lonely necromancer in the afterworld.
4 = 2*2 = ash storms

rinse and repeat.
EOT
