Does that look right?

If so here is my horde roll:
Seer - 2 Magic

If we tie here is another horde roll:
Seer - 1 Save

If we tie here is another horde roll:
Seer - 1 Maneuver

If we are still tied. *sigh*

I rolled an ID! So I’ll take the frontier terrain that I chose. You can have the first march.

Go ahead and roll both of your terrains. I’ll update the board and take my turn tonight. At the airport currently.

Terrain rolls:

Swampland City - 6 Melee
Swampland Temple - 8 Temple

Reroll of Temple:

Swampland Temple - 4 Missile

ok, rolling my home.

Flatland Tower - 8 Tower
rerolling
Flatland Tower - 5 Melee
hmm, tough one for me.

Let me update the board and I'll take my turn.

These games are all honor based and usually I'll 'roll ahead', but either assuming you'll counter maneuver or if my two actions don't interact I'll roll both leaving you with a 'choose your own adventure' to roll a few times to resolve my turn and then you can take your turn.

for important rolls I'll slow down and do it one at a time.

I debated with myself for a long time on this. I could go passive or aggressive...

I'm gonna go for the less risky rolls.

First march at the frontier.
Maneuver attempt.

Assuming you'll counter. Here is my manuever roll:
Seer - 1 ID
Seer - 1 Save
Seer - 1 Save
Seer - 1 Save
Seer - 1 Save
Seer - 1 Magic
Seer - 1 Magic
Seer - 1 Magic
Seer - 1 Magic
Seer - 1 Maneuver
Seer - 1 Maneuver
Seer - 1 Maneuver
Seer - 1 Maneuver
Seer - 2 Magic

5 maneuvers.

IF I win (and that's a big if), turn the terrain down to 5.
That would still be melee, so no action either way.

Second march at my home... (sigh) I'll turn up to 6.
...
stupid swamp stalkers.
...
no melee attack.

Reserves:
I'll move my mages from your home and the frontier to reserves.

EOT

I will attempt to stop the manoeuvre (sorry, British - have to spell it that way Wink

) at the frontier:

Crocosaur - 4 ID
Crocosaur - 4 Surprise
Raider - 2 Missile
Raider - 2 Melee
Raider - 2 Save
Striker - 2 Melee
Striker - 2 Melee
Striker - 1 Save
Striker - 1 Manoeuvre
Striker - 1 Manoeuvre

6 manoeuvre, keeping the terrain at 6.
----------

I will also attempt to stop you at your home terrain (you did't give me the option to show a roll), but I have faith in my Striker (or rather, fair in the utter failure of your Amazons) Wink

Striker - 1 ID

1 manoeuvre
----------

1st March
Home Terrain - Will manoeuvre up to 5.
No action here.
----------

2nd March
Frontier Terrain - Wil manoeuvre up to 7.
No action.
----------

All units at my home terrain, plus both Crocosaur and all 5 Strikers at the Frontier will all got into reserves.

Great to see the online games return! I'm following this with great interest, so thank you both for playing this game.

Hopefully you don't mind me intervening here, but because I know how annoying it be to accidentally get things wrong and mess up the game because of it: isn't the 3-face on the swampland a missile face?
