Warrior-Mages aren't really worth what you pay for them and they really aren't worth much at all unless you trick them out - basically they're 200 gp heavy cavalry who can get one or two decent combat enhancements for substantial fatigue. Or they're 200 gp low-end mages with good armor and high ENC. That said, I *love* them because it's so much fun figuring out how to turn each one into a decent thug!

yes I feel kinda the same way - they're not really that good, but I like 'em

What are their randoms now? I haven't seem them yet.

Warrior Mage randoms are
+1 FAWE 100%
+1 FAWE 100%

so basically 2 random elemental picks. I think this is the same as it was before, though I don't exactly remember.

Turn 74
Good News! Bogus and his cohorts died easily. Here's a shot of Bogus just before he fell to the combined blades of Devarama and Balastha.

Sadly my troops only managed to salvage one magic item from the battle: Bogus' Greenstone Armour. Still, this is a fine memento of this conflict.

Ananda's much vaunted ethereal crossbow is not so impressive: he only managed to kill one enemy before retreating! Vanheim counter-attacked and took one of my border provinces I wasn't really defending.

I summoned some Gandharvas this month, and will summon more this month, and then next month (hopefully) attack. I also summoned a great eagle, because why not?

I myself am traveling to the front to oversee the preparations.

Good going with Bogus.

Have you considered replacing the ethereal crossbow with something else?

Perhaps you could use the Great Eagles with those Siddha's or Devarama's (that's the name of them right? I already forgot the name of the blue skinned fellas

) as an airborne task force.

any suggestions? I probably need to get him to cast Eagle Eyes on himself before firing - maybe that would help him hit something.

Here's a shot of Devarama's defence, with all factors added in:

Can you make Vision's Foe or Piercer? Or maybe Bow of War if you can make it. Perhaps even Thunder Bow, IIRC it has high accuracy as well damage=strenght.

Using Eagle Eyes might be a good idea too, actually, it is a good idea.

I might try 'vision's foe' - I'll see what has the best prec. bonus.
