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!

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.

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?

Oh, you're right. I saw the precision 100 and for some reason read range 100 as well instead of range 30.

And no, you haven't nailed any Harbringers yet, but I was just looking ahead at the likely intersection and doing the math. 200 gold and 2 virgins vs. 60 gems doesn't add up well for me

It sure does seem brutally effective (and cheap). I don't know if its a particular intended feature of Jotunheim or what.

It seems guys can come back from Kokytos (they are not counted as "dead" in the battle report, held artifacts are still "in play" and there is one artifact that helps "navigate the planes of hell".. one of the tomes).
