|
|
Hi all,
I'd like to test out some dice I've just received, and what better than a forum match?
If anyone wants to join, I'd go for a 2-player game, as I'm still very noob at this game, it should be easier for that way.
Bring what you wish, aka standard rules with everything.
Danilo
p.s.: I'm in Italy (GMT + 1) and I don't really feel like I can run the board, as I usually play on a tablet. But in case of need I may try to (be ready for a disaster, though ) |

If you don't mind a slow game (as I can only post once a day) I'll play you with a variation of my battlefest army from Gencon. I just have to find a way to get it down to 36 health and still work. _________________ Multiplayer Champion Gencon11/Battlefest Champion(tied) GenCon10/World Champion GenCon07/National Champion Origins05/Intermediate Champion GenCon02/Novice Champion Origins99 |

I'm jealous. But I have two for my army, so I'm happy with that.

Not a problem. I memorized coastland and highland pretty quickly, but the rest took me forever. I stll have to look them up sometimes.
blue/red -> wasteland (had to look this one up)
blue/gold -> flatland
red/gold -> highland
blue/green -> coastland
blue -> air |

My journey into dragon dice started with the book "cast of fate" and its die.
For months I only had that single die, then one day I've spotted on an Italian online store a offer I couldn't refuse on firewalkers, and I've bought 48 kickers, all they had.
I have a lot of them  |

ok, I haven't run a board manually for a while...
lets start with my army: It doesn't look as nice at 36 health,but it is what it is.
Home - Highland Temple
Behemoth
Mammoth Rider
Infiltrator
2 Bronze Medallion
Frontier - Highland DragonsLayer
Behemoth
Mammoth Rider
Scorpion Knight
2 Bronze Medallion
Horde -
Pony Rider
Summoning Pool -
Ivory Wyrm
Ivory Wyrm
4 Highland Village
3 Gold DragonScout
1 Red DragonScout
2 Red DragonMount
1 Gold DragonMount
1 Red DragonSpy
Off to a meeting, but I'll post a board and my horde roll later today or tomorrow morning.
I don't wanna confuse you by going ahead, but you can go ahead and roll your horde and pick turn/terrain now if you wish and you win the horde roll.
My horde rolled:
Pony Rider - 2 Maneuver
If for some strange reason we tie a second roll would be:
Pony Rider - 1 Melee

Cliff won horde roll. (darn it)
I shouldn't, but I want my terrain more than I want to go first.
So I'll pick my highland.
So you will go first.
Let me roll my terrains and update this in place.
Highland Castle - 6 Melee
Highland Temple - 8 Temple (rerolling)
Highland Temple - 3 Magic _________________ Multiplayer Champion Gencon11/Battlefest Champion(tied) GenCon10/World Champion GenCon07/National Champion Origins05/Intermediate Champion GenCon02/Novice Champion Origins99 |

the board looks fine, so first march at your home, magic roll:
2 fly
2 smite
0 magic. ok that's an easy choice
second march at my home, maneuver attempt:
2x fly
1 melee
1 flurry
total 8 maneuver up to 7 I suppose.
melee attack:
medallion: id
smite
melee
fly
the smite should take care of your lone die.
during reserge I move my 4 phoenixes away from your home. |

ok, for my turn...
At the Frontier.
Maneuver Attempt:
Behemoth - 4 Melee
Mammoth Rider - 3 Melee
Scorpion Knight - 2 ID
Bronze Medallion - 4 Logo
Bronze Medallion - 4 Sortie
wow, only 2.
w/o letting you know if I'm turning the terrain up or down. It's going to be melee either way. So if you want to counter and fail, I'll update the terrain then.
No matter a 5,6 or 7 - It is a melee attack.
Behemoth - 4 Stomp
Mammoth Rider - 3 Trample
Scorpion Knight - 2 Maneuver
Bronze Medallion - 4 Logo
Bronze Medallion - 4 Sortie
First the Logo can cast any 4pt spell...
I'll cast Path on the Mammoth Rider at my Home and send him to your Home.
Next The Stomp would resolve against the FireShadow. (going from memory) Maneuver vs Death and then Save vs bury?
Finally, there is 7 melee to save against (so its possible to not die).
Second march:
Maneuver attempt at your home.
Mammoth Rider - 3 ID which doubles because of the highland to 6.
At this point I need to stop until you resolve both maneuvers and the melee attack to decide what I want to do next. _________________ Multiplayer Champion Gencon11/Battlefest Champion(tied) GenCon10/World Champion GenCon07/National Champion Origins05/Intermediate Champion GenCon02/Novice Champion Origins99 |

He did survive the stomp, but the melee killed him anyway.
and I won both maneuvers. (oh snap! I should've pathed a medallion with him. I meant to, oh well.)
The frontier goes up (I wish now I'd done the other, but it is what I'd decided) Your home goes down.
No action on that second march.
Reserves: All from my home and your home goes to reserves.
EOT
Give me a moment and I'll post the board. _________________ Multiplayer Champion Gencon11/Battlefest Champion(tied) GenCon10/World Champion GenCon07/National Champion Origins05/Intermediate Champion GenCon02/Novice Champion Origins99 |

my first march, magic at reserve was a 0.
then I rolled for maneuver at my home, it's unopposed so I won.
I've rolled in any case and no cantrip came out, but would them be usable in this case? (medallion logo would'nt right)
I bring my highland woods at my home.
reserve, everything @ frontier

You don't actually roll for this. In fact You CAN'T roll if you are unopposed.
> no cantrip came out would them be usable in this case
>(medallion logo would'nt right)
Cantrip never works in a maneuver roll. Its (almost) the only roll it doesn't work in. Same with all the medallion logo's, but Wayfare would have worked.
>I bring my highland woods at my home.
You have to immediately roll it to see what it gets. So please do that and let me know. _________________ Multiplayer Champion Gencon11/Battlefest Champion(tied) GenCon10/World Champion GenCon07/National Champion Origins05/Intermediate Champion GenCon02/Novice Champion Origins99 |
