Thoughts
I’ve got a solid board presence, but I’m not sure how to arrange them on the patrol zone - I didn’t want Jaina as Squad Leader but this caution may hinder me.
As an alternative, I could’ve swapped Bloodrage Ogre for Nautical Dog and bought a Tech I.

I’ll save some gold, keep the board clear and try to Tech-up rapidly, although Calamandra and her Tigers might threaten those tech buildings.

I’ll continue to tech-up, hoping to build Tech III and bring in a Pirate Gunship, although I doubt my tech buildings will survive that long.
I imagine my opponent will play Ferocity or Behind the Ferns, to capitalise on his large number of units.

What an exciting turn! It feels good to be proactive, although this has all but wiped out my forces.

GG WP! I’ll add further analysis later, but my brief feedback after checking your techs is that grabbing Jaina in backline on turn 3 would have given you a little added firepower, or alternatively teching up right there would also have provided more counter threat. Delaying the tower one turn isn’t so bad if all I do is break the tech 2, as the tech 2 rebuilds itself for free
That and I think after seeing me hide behind the tiger with Maxband Cala, you should strongly consider teching kidnapping (even 2x of them). I’m likely looking to feral strike and kidnapping neutralizes feral strike super well.
Lobbers weren’t going to do you much good in that situation.
Feel free to start a new game as P1 red whenever you like!

Thanks for the feedback and the offer of another game, however I will take a break from playing Codex for a while.

Verdant Tree feels like a solid plan, and teching 1 feral strike along with a t1 unit. Might build tech 2 next turn, we’ll see.
