What is the best way to counter the new Force Master, and which mage do you think is best equiped to do so.  I have my opinion, and I'll chime in, but first I'm curious to know what you guys think!  Ready?....GO!  :woohoo:

We had a vinyl sign/banner company print the arena board on vinyl so we'd have more boards to play on during organized play/tournamnets.  We also increased the size quite a bit.  You can see the original board sitting in the background.  No more crowding for beastmaster animal swarms on the board!   Thank you to the Mage Wars team for providing the PDF  Can't wait to play some tourney games on these! :cheer:

Last night I tested a deck that I think, after I fine tune some things, might thus far be my favorite build to date.  It was a priestess equipment build that also used 4 hands of Bim-Shalla.  This build has it all...  Massive melee power (12 attack dice and the possibility to daze stun when using her staff) and access to healing spells for low cost.  If you really wanted to go crazy, you could include 6 hands of bim shalla for 14 attack dice.  Couple that with a battle fury for two consecutive attacks, and your opponent will be reeling.  Not to mention, the hands can be used to boost Armor and to heal.  IMHO They are an amazing asset to any build, even the warlock who must pay triple for them.

The one glaring flaw I found is that most of your over-the-top hitting power comes from the hands...which are delicate, and hard to protect.  Once your opponent sees this, they will go after them and destroy them.   A tactic to counter this might be to include a few knights/gray angels and put them on guard in the zones that contain your conujurations...it would at least slow down your opponet destroying them.  I planned to do this, but then got overly aggressive, and sent my creatures into melee...   :pinch:

Gonna make some adjustments/tweaks to the spell book and try it again asap.

Anyone else tried this build yet?

The priestess only item crown of protection allows a mage to add a +1 armor token to a creature.  I bought my copy at GenCon, and it doesn't contain any armor +1 tokens.  Were they left out?

Thanks

Can someone who's played the various mages describe their play styles?  I know it's a customizable spell book, and you can make different builds, but what are the different styles of play for each mage as intended by the designers?

Someone good at math...  Can you tell me what the average die roll is on a mage wars dice?  Thanks.
