Codex Codex play-by-forum

Apoligies for the slow response. Losing access to utilities for an extended period of time has disrupted my daily routine to the point where everything feels weird now. I’m waiting to regain some sense of normalcy before reengaging with this thread because right now I’m not confident I can give it the consideration it deserves.

Okay, I’m not quite back to 100%, but I’m able to wrap my head around Codex again. Man, I had forgotten how exciting our situation was!

Workering the Training Grounds for the same reason… is what I’d like to do, but I think I need to disable that octopus, and I won’t be able to afford a worker afterward. Guess I’ll stash it to worker next turn. Looking to defense, assuming he has no hasty unit in hand, he can only kill Bigby with Onimaru, regardless of patroller position, so I just need to decide if I want gold or cards more, and I think gold, seeing how quickly I’m burning through it. Now, should I tech something, and if so, what…? I’m going into a reshuffle. Mind-Parry Monk! I’ve got to protect myself against his targeting, and chances are, I’ll never get a chance to cheat one in with Feral Strike until I do, so both copies are going in.

No worries, sometimes life gets in the way.

You locked me out of my entire hand, and patrolling Bigby clearly wasn’t going to save me, so I used his maxband to draw and got nothing helpful. Reducing your Tricycloid damage to prevent me from making room for a different hero was a good move. GG WP!

I’m rather unimpressed with Feral’s contribution to my deck, so I’d like to try something different, if you’re game to keep going. I’m interested in these decks at the moment:

[Necromancy]/Truth/Present
[Law]/Past/Present
[Finesse]/Peace/Necromancy

115

Yes, that´s fine. But the next week will be busy, too, so maybe you have to be patient again. You can start the game if you decided your deck if you want. If you want to be Player 2 you have to name me your deck first :wink:

116

Alright, I chose [Finesse]/Peace/Necromancy. GL HF!

Nothing to see here, just ditching an overpriced Ninja. Patrolling against Nullcraft. Going with River first because I want to try using her magic.

Ditching Brother for being similarly uninteresting. Not super worried about the base damage, considering I have access to Brick Thief. Discord can efficiently kill Nullcraft, so I’ll take one of those. Will also go with Harmony, 'cuz I want Dancers. Now, what to do with my other $2… I don’t really need a Tech I, but if I don’t build one, that’ll put him on guard against Finesse spells. But, it’s tempting to get the Thief into action… though maybe not tempting enough to reduce my hand size. Tech I it is, then.

Hurrah, now I have a choice of which building to repair. Unfortunately, I don’t really want to worker any of these cards… but I need to pick one, so… Turtle, I guess, since I want spells for Harmony and I have no other way to repair building damage, but I can heal heroes using Nether Drain, and Boot Camp can add extra health to almost anything.

River AND Tenderfoot kill my Argonaut? How does she kill him without taking damage?

Tenderfoot is not required; after Discord, Fading Argonaut SQL is (0/2A), so River’s 3 attack is good enough on its own.
