ok,

first march from reserve,
magic action:

antelope: ID
wolverine: ID
wolverine: 2 save

uhmmmm 3 magic
let's see...

Scent of Fear on your frontier army

Second March @ your home

magic action:

bear: ID
wolverine: 3 Magic
buffalo: ID
weasel: save
weasel: save
antelope: save

total 10 magic

4 gold: path antelope from your home to frontier
2 Gold: hide my antelope at frontier

the remaining 4 I can double them, right?
if so with 8 blue magic I'll cast two wind walk on my army at frontier

reserve: all from reserve to your home

hope everything is legal...

well I don't know if I can cast those 3 spell in that order, right?
If I hide my only unit at the frontier, can I still target that army?

I don't know all the nitpicky rules on hide, but otherwise I think everything is legal except scent of fear. You can't cast it from reserves.

Page 14 of the rulebook has a list of spells you can cast from reserves. I'll copy the blue and gold spells below. My general rule of thumb is that you can cast spells that affect your DUA and your armies or your units. But you can't cast spells that target terrains, opposing armies, or opposing DUAs.

Blue (Air): Breath of Life, Call of the Wild, Airy Acquisition, Wind Wall, Wind Walk, Wilding
Gold (Earth): Stoneskin, Camouflage, Earthen Armor, Hide, Path, Leaving

it seems fine to me

my son rolled the dragon: claws

Dolus · Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2012 1:28 pm GMT Post subject:

I'm glad you rolled the dragon. Wink

I was starting to roll and was gonna get tail, tail, claws. Also, something I learned in forum games as far as rolling dragons, for 2-player, it doesn't matter who rolls as long as it's consistent. It's easy enough for you to roll your dragons at the end of your turn. But if or when you play in a multiplayer game, the consensus is generally to let the player being attacked roll the die. The reason for this is efficiency. If you're first player, and the third player is being attacked by a dragon, it could take too long to wait for you to post a roll for the third player before they can respond.

Dragon Attack:
Claws
6 damage

Dragon Combo Roll
Enchanter - 4 magic
Conjurer - 3 magic
Conjurer - 3 magic
Evoker - 1 ID
Evoker - 1 melee
Eagle Knight - 3 ID
Archer - 3 Missile
Archer - 2 Maneuver
Fighter - 1 ID
Fighter - 1 Missile

5 ID
1 melee
4 missile
2 maneuvers (counts as saves)

So let's count 4 ID as saves to save against the 6 damage. 1 ID counts as... missile, why not. So dragon stays, but I take no damage.

1st March - Maneuver attempt:
Enchanter - 4 cantrip (always when I'm maneuvering)
Conjurer - 3 magic
Conjurer - 2 melee
Evoker - 1 maneuver
Evoker - 2 magic
Eagle Knight - 3 melee
Archer - 3 Missile
Archer - 2 missile
Fighter - 1 missile
Fighter - 1 maneuver

That's pathetic. But I still got 2 results. The most you can get with your antelope is 2, so I would win the tie. Move it up to 8.

I'll cast magic.
Enchanter - 4 cantrip
Conjurer - 3 magic
Conjurer - 2 magic
Evoker - 1 maneuver
Evoker - 2 magic
5 1 5 4 6
Eagle Knight - 4 melee
Archer - 2 ID
Archer - 2 maneuver
Fighter - 1 maneuver
Fighter - 2 melee

11 magic +2 ID doubles to 4, so 15 magic.
I'll use 14 to summon both dragons to my home.

No reserves, EoT.

At the start of your turn, dragon attack:
Dragon 1 - claw
Dragon 2 - Tail, Breath

At the start of your turn, dragon attack:
Dragon 1 - claw
Dragon 2 - Tail, Breath

so, what do we have here... a big pain I'd say.
ok first I must resolve the breath, hence
bear: id
weasel : magic

I'm already puzzled, the bear is safe the weasel dies, ok?

now my response to dragon attack:
I roll those who's left

wolverine 4 magic
buffalo ID
bear double strike
weasel 2 magic

uhm let me guess my bear an my weasel die

I'll wait as I'm really unsure...

Dolus · Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2012 2:43 pm GMT Post subject:

So you roll for breath first, and you're right, weasel dies, but the bear is safe.

Then you do the combo roll, which is only a save roll due to the blue breath effect.

9 damage - 3 saves = 6 damage. So I think you would have to take the bear and wolverine. Then you can feralize and do your turn normally. I think that math is right.

Feralize happens before hand. Also remember 3 saves at an 8th = 6 saves. Also he can reroll the bear (double strike) I believe during a dragon attack even with blue breath (not 100% sure on this but pretty sure).
