My Thoughts
This sets up pretty nice! Just a question of what we wanna kill in the backline. Could take both heroes, could take tree and one hero, could take tree and tech2. I think that’s what I want ultimately. Play for some war drums fun times.
Nice turn!

pplymorph kills hyperion.he has 1 dmg due to tower, the dmg chit remains, so once he becomes a 1/1, the dmg kills it.

Not a bad turn yourself! Really wish I would’ve killed Arg and Prynn last turn instead of the tech 2…
Legion is right on the polymorph, so I’ll pretend for the moment you just had Arg hit base. Really wish I had Tricycloid to spin down Prynn here!

Still wary of a possible kidnapping. However, that would hurt his bankroll and ultimately limit his other options. It’s past time for Vir to join the engagement.
There’s the big bad flyer… We’ll have to see what we can do about that!
We actually missed Drakk damage on your base on turn 6 BTW, so that with the Crash Bomber damage has your base on 16 right now. May end up being relevant, we shall see

My Thoughts
Well hopefully I can force a choice here. Take the tech 2 and prevent a hyperion, kill Tric and prevent TD, or kill Drakk and prevent maxband threat. Hopefully Whit chooses wrong as War Drums is the thing we’re drawing into, not much else. I spose I will Tech Lab to try to make that look a little juicier, and tech up next turn if it’s Drakk who gets the axe. Trojan Duck may be my out to end
Won’t the Void Star defend against Argo?
Nope it doesn’t. For some reason flying patrollers only see flying attackers. Only ground units with anti air see both types of attackers.

Counter intuitive from the “this is like WC3 as a card game” angle but indeed correct, flying patrols don’t affect ground forces, they walk on by. Think it’s a balance choice, fliers would be incredibly powerful if they also shot down ground forces on defense (they already get to for free on offense)
@Whitspurr lmk how you’d like to proceed! We’ve got a close game on our hands regardless of the flying misunderstanding
@Whitspurr ya around mate?
Sorry, I forgot to post this from yesterday: Whitspurr’s dropped out, due to time issues. I’ve mentioned this in the tournament thread now, too.
