What do you mean "in the most unfair order"? Are they meeting one pair at a time, and you will play strengths against weaknesses? They aren't all going into a 16-way battle, are they?

PvK
They are. That is "the most unfair way possible".
Once I get this done I will most probably develop some a little more advanced rules and do this again, more than once. Sort of testing now if there is enough interest.

(edit)with 16-way meaning they are all dumped into same province on the same turn, playing 1 vs 1 in totally random order ofc.(/edit)

I think he is doing it through map commands, with which one can add commanders to provinces, equip them, give them chosen magic paths etc.

Interesting.

May I ask for a clarification? If one chooses a pretender chassis, does one get
an actual pretender, or the result of a wish? It does make a difference.

But anyway, I am off to think of something that could take out the Doom Horror.

I figure magebane should be able to kill it unless I am mistaken about how magebane works ( IIRC 100 fatigue to anything with magic paths ).

Actually I think a lot of this will revolve around how to get around magebane or it will all be about who gets to strike 1st. But that's just with 60 seconds of thinking. I'm sure others will be far more clever.

Magebane is an unique item, and thus forbidden.

Doom Horrors aint *that* tough, they easily succumb to anything elemental.

No magebane. Actually, I think there is something that everyone should design their pretender specifically agaist, but apart from the single pretender using it, I can't see any others designing any sort of protection against it. What is it? Not telling

Added with a map command, equals one gotten trought wish. If I added real pretenders I would have to worry about dominion levels and all...
