Guess I'll give this board thing a shot. No promises.

Fortuitous starting position. Let's see if I can capitalize.

No spells, effects, dragons

First March
At my Home

Rolling for Magic:
Death Mage: 4 Cantrip
Lich: 3 Magic
Eldar Dryad: 2 Magic
Swamp Wizard: 2 Melee
Swamp Giant: 4 Poison

Using 3 Black (Lich) to cast Palsy on your army at your Home
Using 4 Gold (Death Mage) to cast Path to move Ravager from your Home to the Frontier

Ghost: 3 Save
Revenant: 2 Save
Naiad: 3 Save

Total: 2 Maneuver. Bah!

Awaiting counter.

[Dolus]

Thanks for posting the board! I've been much busier than usual, and posting the initial board always takes me a while.

Fireshadow: 4 Create Fireminions
Ashbringer: 3 Magic
Ashbringer: 3 ID
Ashbringer: 3 Magic
Sunflare: 2 Magic
Sunflare: 3 Maneuver

10 maneuvers. Attempt unsuccessful.

[AC]

Still at your Home. No action.

None

End of Turn

[Dolus]

So no initial effects or anything.

First March

Maneuver attempt at my home.

Fireshadow: 4 Fly
Ashbringer: 3 Magic
Ashbringer: 3 ID
Ashbringer: 3 Magic
Sunflare: 3 Maneuver
Sunflare: 2 ID

12 maneuvers. Minus 1 from palsy leaves 11. That's probably enough, but we'll see.

[AC]

I will oppose with all my might!

Rolling for Counter-Maneuver:
Naiad: 3 Maneuver
All else: 11 Melee and 4 Smite

Total: 6 Maneuver (doubled due to racial)

Counter unsuccessful. How did you train your Firewalkers to roll maneuvers when you need them? Mine just kept coming up magic and saves, magic and saves.

[Dolus]

I have to admit that I am very impressed with them. Let's hope I can keep this up.

Maneuver down to 1 - magic.
Roll for magic.

Fireshadow: 4 Fly
Ashbringer: 3 Magic
Ashbringer: 3 Magic
Ashbringer: 3 ID
Sunflare: 3 Maneuver
Sunflare: 3 Magic

Still have maneuvers in there, but lots of magic still!

3 ID and 9 magic, 8 after palsy. 3 ID is 3 red or 6 blue. I'll take 6 blue. Whoops. Second time I made this mistake, I should've brought blue dragons.

That gives me 14 total magic, and I'll make it 12 blue and 2 red.

I'll cast 2x Lightning Strike. First we'll hit your Elder Dryad. Then we'll hit your Swamp Wizard.
Use the last 2 red for an ash storm on your home.

Let's see where this goes, and then I'll make my second march.

[AC]

Eldar Dryad: 3 Save
Swamp Wizard: 2 Magic

Swamp Wizard to DUA.

[Dolus]

Second March
Let's try maneuvering the horde:

Pheonix: 4 Seize
Daybringer: 3 ID
Daybringer: 4 Fly
Daybringer: 2 Save
Daybringer: 3 ID
Nightsbane: 2 Maneuver

12 results, -1 for ash storm is 11. Bring it up to 2 if successful.

Either way, magic.
Pheonix: 4 Fly
Daybringer: 4 Missile
Daybringer: 4 Melee
Daybringer: 4 Melee
Daybringer: 3 ID
Nightsbane: 3 Missile

So 3 total. You'll probably like this, but I'll Firebolt your zombie at the frontier.

Reserves
Frontier army to my home, and horde army to reserves.

[AC]

Pardon me, sir, but you may notice his fleshless form and winning smile and recognize that my fine fellow at the frontier is a Skeleton and not a Zombie! We do not have to tolerate such bigotry!

Also, rolling: 1 Save; he survives.

Rolling for counter-maneuver:
Naiad: ID (2)
Death Mage: 4 Magic
Lich: 3 Melee
Swamp Giant: 4 Save
Eldar Dryad: 3 Save

Total: 2, -1 for Ash Storm, doubled for racial: 2 Maneuver.
My Home up to 2.

Is that end of turn for you?

[Dolus]

I scoff at your skeleton.

And yes, after my reserves my turn is done.

Second Turn
Palsy on your army at your Home expires.
Attempting Mutation with my Home army, targeting one of your Daybringers in Reserves. (I know it's 50/50, but it's all I've got.)
No dragons.

[Dolus]

Daybringer: 2 Maneuver

And clearly I wasn't thinking about my targets too well. I never should've killed a single swamp stalker unit and then retreat everything to reserves. >_>

Daybringer dies.
