General Discussion / Toolbox cards
« on: October 30, 2016, 07:46:27 PM »
Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but has arcane wonders ever considered bringing out a spell tome of tool box spells i.e. Dispel, dissolve, teleport etc?
I have all the sets and enough books to have all mages going at once, but I'm always short of the spells that everyone needs, dispel etc.
I usually just use a scrap of paper in the cards place, but over 12 books that's lot of paper. Id be interested in buying a pack of spells that contained maybe 100 cards of 10 copies of the most commonly used cards, or something too that effect.

so the main gist behind this build is to utilise the Warlords command ability and combo it with the horn and the helm of command. standard bearer on Thorg and fortify some key square and build a bit of a base and start briniging out the soliders.
Turn 1: 19 mana throw down Barracks and the Harmonize on it. 3 mana left
Turn 2: 12 mana and 2 on Barracks, barracks deploys goblin grunt 10 mana left QC mana flower 5 mana left cast ring of command/fortified position face down my square.  2 mana left.
Turn 3: 12 mana and 3 on barracks.  depending on what my opponent does, maybe reveal fortified position, deploy slinger/grunt or cast archers watchtower.

Suggestions???

Rules Discussion / Sleep and Guarding
« on: July 31, 2016, 05:06:16 AM »
Hey I'm sure this has been asked before but couldn't find anything on it.

If I put an opponents creature to sleep and then I have one of my creatures guarding in that zone can my opponent attack his creature to wake it up or does he end up attacking mine as it has a guard?
The rules say: If there is an enemy guard in a zone, then you cannot melee attack any other object in that zone other than the enemy guards.

So what happened was in the game; my nightshade lotus, put his guardian angel to sleep, before Togorahs main phase, then Togorah had his turn, attacked his mage and then because of his vigilance gained a guard token. Then my opponent decided to try to wake up his angel using a royal archers melee attack, so we played it that Togorah took the hit as he was guarding as per the rules. Is this correct or can the opponent avoid the guard as its their own creature?

Spellbook Design and Construction / Druid Seedling Pod
« on: July 26, 2016, 06:31:20 AM »
The Druid is my favourite mage, she is really powerful once treeboned (going from average to excellent). She has great board control, her plants are cheap and strong, some pretty awesome conjurations and Barkskin is one of my favourite cards.
I've had some pretty good success with the Druid using the Vine Tree so thought I'd try the Samara Tree.
Suggestions welcome.

Turn 1: 20 mana deploy vine marker in same zone, QC Samara Tree main phase cast Harmonise on tree.
Turn 2: 19 mana and two on Tree. Deploy vine marker in adjacent zone. Deploy Pod on first vine marker. QC Pod in adjacent zone. main phase cast Tataree.
Turn 3: 19 mana, two on tree and one on each pod. deploy vine marker. deploy pod using a vine marker. QC either Druids Leaf Ring/ Life tree (if playing Necro or low creature build). main phase. Tataree to put a mana on pod in starting zone. 16/11 mana cast face down nulify on self.
Turn 4: lets say we cast the ring. 24 mana two on tree, three on one pod, two on another and one on the last. deploy vine marker. deploy pod using a vine marker. At this point I can cast anything in the book

As you can see this build generates mana pretty quick. I know the pods are fragile but they are cheap and have cantrip so meh. If the opponent concentrates on killing your pods, then you can hard cast what plants you need to kill him and if not let your garden flourish.

Spellbook Design and Construction / Necro Ichthellid
« on: July 25, 2016, 04:45:49 AM »
Hi, first time poster long time reader. Have really wanted to build a good Necro Ichthellid book, I really like the theme of it. I did make one a while ago but it was too slow and was crushed easily. Relied heavily on the Ichthellids infecting my own acolytes and the having a Ravenous Ghoul eating them (so evil). So this is my second attempt and I'm still not convinced. Suggestions welcome, I don't have Forged in Fire or Conquest of Kumanjaro.
