As i remember Togorah has a Rooted trait, so how could he benefit from Eagle Wings?

Yes i know, but the way he put it, it looked like none of the three items cant be used at all in any way.

Thank you anyhow, cheers.

"You cant use Bow and Staff of Beast (or Ring of Beast) at the same time."

I know i cant use Bow and Staff at the same time, but why cant i use them with Ring of Beasts?

Yes, my spellbook is mana heavy, but that is why i try to balance it with 2x Mana flower, Harmonize, Lair, Enchanters ring and Ring of beasts. But we will see how it works this friday.

I will try to shuffle creatures more and try to include more Timber Wolfs as you suggested.

Thanks for the comments, hopefully, the book will be optimal soon  :)

This is the revised spellbook, after one more match it will hopefully need just one more tweak, and also i have just acquired Dragonclaw Wolverine and Oscuda so i would like to try them out.

Has anyone tried them maybe, any feedback?

I have cut down one the expensive creatures, and made some little tweaks in the enchantment, incantation and equipment areas.

Only thing i dont like is the rather large number of my equpment, but im not sure if i need to take some out cause it seems they are a necessity  :-\

One question... if i have at the same time Reverse magic and Nullify on me, which enchantment will be first triggered when the opponent attacks?

Both will be triggered, and you decide which one occurs first. Obviously, you would only want to pay for one of them, so the other would be discarded without effect. Needless to say, it is usually a waste to enchant the same object with both of these at the same time.

You should double check both spells. I don't believe either one protects you from attacks. They protect against incantations and enchantments.
I didnt think attack spell, i know they work for incantations an enchantments only. My phrase "attacks" was meant for attack via ench and inc.

@Coshade, you gave me some things to think about...
Battleforge is a good idea, and the comment about preasure is correct.

Sadly, i have only 2 falcons, i dont have Codex 1, othervise i would defenetly use them over foxes.

Thank you all for the input, all other comments are welcome.

What do you guys think of the Dragonclaw Wolverine? Would you swap it maybe for Galador, Carvere or one of the Grizlies?

Thank you for the input guys... so to comment a few things:

1. Yep, i thought my creature base is rather expensive so i will shuffle it up a little, replacing some for lower level creatures.
I also have Macunda, Imperial Griffin and Dragonclaw Wolverine, should i pick one of them instead of Carvere, Emerald Tegu or Galador maybe?

2. Yes i have FiF, i am missing only DvN.

3. As V10lentray said, i understood the problem with fast trait, full action bows and ranged bonus the first time i played JBM, it felt weird, but i thought i could let fly some arrows, and later fast could be a nice addition for positioning around the map or getting away from danger.

One question... if i have at the same time Reverse magic and Nullify on me, which enchantment will be first triggered when the opponent attacks?


Could you take a minute and give your opinion on the revised spellbook

Some time ago i started playing with my two friends, after a while i realised that Beastmaster suits me the best.

This friday i will play with this new spellbook, so i wandered if you as experienced players could give some insight/comment.

And sorry for spelling mistakes, English is not my native language, im from Croatia who by the way loves this game.

Cheers!

Opening is classic... manaflower, lair, summon a fast low level creature to rush forward, then cast one item or boost for the creature (Bear Strenght or Rhino Hide).

The idea behind the spellbook is that i can deal with flying creatures via Tarok, Thunderift Falcon, Galador, Ivarium Longbow, Hurl Boulder, also to be protected with Nullify, Block, Reverse Magic, Reverse Attack while dealing damage from afar with bow and keeping enemy creatures at bay with my creatures.

I mostly have to deal with a Warlock and Priest which my friends favor.
