Oh, wow, this is a monster of a game. Hmmm, it may take me a day or two to figure out what is going on. An extension would definitely be a good idea unless Immaculate wants to play this turn and I could start the next.

48H extenson granted, email changed. Keep me posted.

Thank you!!!

OK, I submitted a turn. I'm not going to pretend it's a good one, but I think I'm getting the hang of this position. Definitely lots of potential for interesting strategies. I hope I survive long enough to try them!

Well, if nothing else, this game will be a learning experience for me. For example, I confirmed my suspicions that Flames from the Sky is a waste against troops. But it turns out it's pretty handy against mages. Ouch!

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 

yeah, the stats I've got say "15AP fire dmg" so i figure thats almost certain death for an unarmoured human and about 50/50 vs 10hp+10 protection. Seems it even hits 50% of commanders inside forts.

OK, good news -- my Harbringers aren't totally useless! Yay! Although I would have liked to have had a water bless.

In other news, I'm getting my turns in pretty quickly, that counts for something, right?

Yah, mirror image seems to be a good counter to claws of kocytos.

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 

Well, I see why Immaculate got frustrated -- Claws of Kokytos is seriously overpowered, insanely so in CBM. I suppose it's a good thing I have little experience building SC's -- Jotenheim can flatten them easily.

I guess I may as well start dumping gems into ethereal crossbows.

i do believe its (claws) range is limited? maybe start in the rear and wait for him to cast other spells and deplete his blood slaves?
