I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to post, but here goes:

Dwarf Army (36)

Home - Highland City
Mammoth Rider x1
Lizard Rider x1
Pony Rider x1
Wizard x2
Thaumaturgist x1
Theurgist x2
Gargoyle x1
(19 Points)

Frontier - Highland Temple
Pony Rider x1
Lizard Rider x1
(3 points)

Horde -
Mammoth Rider x1
Lizard Rider x2
Pony Rider x1
Thaumaturgist x2
Theurgist x2
(14 Points)

Summoning Pool
Gold Drake x1
Gold Wyrm x1

This will be my first game ever, so I may need some help and coaching.

Welcome to Dragon Dice!

Most likely it would be best to post that you want to play a game before posting your army. But this can work.

Some things you need to fix. No more than half your health can be in any one starting army. So for a 36-health game, that means a maximum of 18 health in any one army. Your home army has 20 health (not 19), so it's too big. Your total army size is 37 health. So that's too big as well.

Terribly sorry. Is this legal now?

Close, now you have a total of 35 health. So you need to put one more health into the army. As long as you don't put it into the home army you are fine.

That all looks correct. If nobody joins in by the end of the day, I'll play you.

[XaX]

Excellent, thanks

[AC]

I was strongly considering throwing my hat in the ring, but given my own rustiness, we would likely be reliant on the intercession of a benevolent overseer: quite likely to happen, but liable to slow things down. Dolus is apt to be a handy instructor (and I had kind of a funky, crooked army in mind anyway) so I'll cede first round to him.

[Dolus]

I'll let AC take the next game.


I've been wanting to try Lava Elves for a while. I feel they're very fickle, but watching sweetberlinetta play with them has gotten me wanting to try them out. Plus, my collection is finally of a size that I have decent elves to choose from.

Home: Highland Tower
4 Necromancer
2 Warlock
2 Adept

Campaign: Highland Standing Stones
2 Infiltrator
1 Assassin
2 Scorpion Knight
1 Dead Shot
1 Fusilier

Horde:
1 Fusilier

Summoning Pool:
Black Drake
Black Wyrm
Black Dragonkin Champion
Red DragonChamp
Red DragonMount
Red Dragonfoal
Red Dragonfoal
Red Dragonfoal

I'll get to work on the board. In the meantime, here is my horde roll:
Fusilier: 1 Maneuver

woohoo! 1 result!

[XaX]

I look forward to playing you in the future AC.

My horde roll:
Lizard Rider: 3 Melee
Lizard Rider: 2 Save
Lizard Rider: 2 ID
Mammoth Rider: 3 Trample
Pony Rider: 1 ID
Thaumaturgist: 2 Save
Thaumaturgist: 2 Save
Theurgist: 1 ID
Theurgist: 1 Magic

2+3+1+1= 7
So I choose my frontier and go second.

Let me know if the board looks right to you.

Terrain roll:
Highland Tower: 3 Magic

If everything looks good, go ahead and roll your terrains and we'll get started.

[XaX]

Okey Dokey,
Frontier = 6 (melee)
Home = 4 (missle)
Board looks right

1st March
Magic @ Home:
Necromancer: 2 Magic
Necromancer: 4 Cantrip
Necromancer: 3 Melee
Necromancer: 3 ID
Warlock: 2 Melee
Warlock: 2 Maneuver
Adept: 1 Magic
Adept: 1 ID

7 magic + 4 ID (4 black or 8 red)

Let's try going for 15 red magic, and cast 5x Fearful Flames. One each on:
Theurgist @ my home
Theurgist @ my home
Pony Rider @ my home
Pony Rider @ your home
Theurgist @ your home

After that resolves,

Second March
I'll attempt to maneuver at the frontier terrain:
Infiltrator: 4 Counter
Infiltrator: 5 Melee
Assassin: 1 Missile
Scorpion Knight: 4 Melee
Scorpion Knight: 2 Maneuver
Dead Shot: 2 Missile
Fusilier: 1 Maneuver
Fusilier: 1 ID

4 maneuver results. And I'm just remembering that you do double your maneuvers at highland. So if I win, I'll maneuver up to 7 - melee.

Either way, I'll melee attack your pony riders.
Infiltrator: 5 Maneuver
Infiltrator: 1 Melee
Assassin: 3 Missile
Scorpion Knight: 2 ID
Scorpion Knight: 1 Melee
Dead Shot: 2 Maneuver
Fusilier: 1 Melee
Fusilier: 1 Missile

5 melee. I believe you can't get more than 2 saves, so this will take them both out.

Reserves:
Fusilier at Horde to my reserves.
EoT

Turn Order: Dolus, zcantin

Turn 1 - zcantin

	*****************	**	*****************	**	*****************	*****************
	Dolus BUA		Dolus DUA		Dolus Reserve Army	Dolus Summoning Pool
*
	Dolus		Dolus		Dolus Home Army
	Zcantin's Home (City)		Frontier (Temple) (7 unless you beat 4 maneuvers)		Dolus's Home (Tower)
	Zcantin Home Army (fearful flames) (fearful flames)		Zcantin		Zcantin (fearful flames) (fearful flames) (fearful flames)
*
	Zcantin Reserve Army		Zcantin Summoning Pool		Zcantin DUA	Zcantin BUA

So now it should be your turn pending your counter maneuver roll for the frontier (if you choose to oppose) and your rolls for the fearful flames.

[XaX]

1),
Pony Rider: 1 Melee
Theurgist: 1 ID
Theurgist: 1 Magic
Theurgist: 1 ID
--------------------
Theurgist: 1 Melee
Theurgist: 1 Melee
So 2x Theurgists go into reserve and the others are dead.

2). One result on frontier so it goes up to seven.

FIguring out my turn here in a second.

[Dolus]

And one more pony rider.

Updating the board.

1). Try to move up your home
Lizard Rider: 2 Maneuver
Lizard Rider: 2 ID
Lizard Rider: 3 Maneuver
Mammoth Rider: 3 ID
Thaumaturgist: 2 Magic
Thaumaturgist: 2 Melee

2+2+3+3 = 10 (so 20? or is it just maneuver results and not id?)

2). Bump up my home

SHould I wait to do reserves?

[Dolus]

At my home:

Necromancer: 3 ID
Necromancer: 5 Magic
Necromancer: 5 Magic
Necromancer: 2 Save
Warlock: 2 ID
Warlock: 2 ID
Adept: 1 Maneuver
Adept: 1 ID
9 maneuvers. Way more than I expected, but still not enough to stop you.



And yes, 20. Your IDs will count as maneuvers since that is what you are rolling for. Then you'll double all maneuvers, so in effect, the IDs are doubled as well.


For reserves, it's up to you. If you plan on doing more actions, you might want to see the result of those actions before you do reserves.

[XaX]

My pony rider died

So I take a missle action against your home:
Lizard Rider: 2 Save
Lizard Rider: 2 Melee
Lizard Rider: 3 Maneuver
Mammoth Rider: 3 ID
Thaumaturgist: 2 ID
Thaumaturgist: 3 Magic
2+3 = 5

[Dolus]

Necromancer: 4 Cantrip
Necromancer: 2 Save
Necromancer: 5 Magic
Necromancer: 4 Cantrip
Warlock: 2 Maneuver
Warlock: 2 Magic
Adept: 1 Maneuver
Adept: 1 Save

Maneuvers count as saves, so
3 saves + 3 maneuvers = 6 saves.

But also, 8 cantrips.

I'll cast a 2 point Finger of Death on a Lizard Rider in your horde.

[XaX]

I forgot to try and dispel with my gargoyle. If you'll let me take it back he dispelled and saved my pony rider.
My lizard rider is dead.
I move my reserves to my horde and end my turn.
