Our AT&T router has started acting up, and I wasn’t able to access the forums yesterday. I’ll try to keep up with the game, but there’s a chance I won’t be able to. GL HF

Well, at least Vandy’s not as scary without her Black spells, and Jandra seems like a good first line of defense.

Won’t need to worry about Mad Man, and Rambaster’s not strong enough to break through a SQL, but Charge is still a threat. Scorch too, but it’s so expensive I’m not worried.

He has no upgrade removal, so MoLaC is the obvious choice. Doubly so for Artisan Mantis to offset base damage. However, I need to build some board presence before upgrading. Trading units despite the base damage because I want to keep Drakk alive as long as possible, and a point of armor might help with that.

It’s a little tempting to try redploying Garth, but he would probably just be killed again. Better to tech up now and open more options for next turn. Died: Drakk, Garth

So… I could just deal 3 + 4 + 3 = 10 base damage right now, and play a Gargoyle. That leaves his base at 7, which is literally two Goyle attacks (or 1 if pumped + drakk/pillage). Sounds good to me.
