Agreed. That Devata is a sexy, sexy summon. I'm stoked to see what the other nations get as comparable national summons. Woo!

Oh, and what're the casting requirements/costs for the Devata anyway?

IIRC 45 pearls, 5 Astral

I imagine Devata is pretty Umoring brutal with Water bless. Six, eight or even more attacks in one round! Or fire bless. 6 AP damage x 3 = 18 AP damage + weapons damage...and you can also give him a fourth weapon instead of a shield...

Re: Silent Seas AAR
 

Might even be better than that. I think the fire bless applies to all melee attacks, not just weapons. So the kick would be fire based, as well. The kick would definitely benefit from quickness.

Man, I am loving all the castles everywhere. This is going to be so much fun!

Oooh I forgot the kick! Of course the kick counts too!

Turn 58
No attacks this turn, but I did notice T'ien Ch'i attacking Vanheim with a group of mercenaries: a beast trainer with a group of fire drakes.

I have readied my army for attacking Vanheim's force which is besieging T'ien Ch'i's capital. Bishen is commanding, supported by Avilasa, Bhadrayu, and Anuprabhu the Yakshas, as well as Guruprasada and Bemra the Yakshinis. I have 165 Yavanas, as well as 30 Bandar apes and 18 Gandharvas. The Gandharvas will take the center, with a large group (30) of Yavanas on each flank with orders to flank the enemy. The Bandar will be forward, to either side of the Gandharvas, to draw arrows away from the Yavanas. In the second rank I have 5 groups of 15 Yavanas spread across the line, with orders to wait for a few minutes before attacking. Finally in reserve I have 2 more groups of Yavanas, to support the line should it weaken.
The Yakshinis will be calling powerful showers of frost on the enemy ranks, while the Yakshas will be hurling meteors and wind composed of blades towards the enemy. Bishen will stay in the back to bless the troops and oversee the battle.

Things are quiet. The calm before the storm. I am confident we will win a great victory.

There are....light effects now? =O

Re: Silent Seas AAR
 

I like Vanheim's commander's name. Makes me thirsty.

This isn't the first screenshot where you can see them.
