the
Quiet Sword
"This
one is pretty much just straight up.
All right, just kidding is anything normal in the lands
of the Pitac? there
is a catch, a twist, a surprise, a …
well you’ll find out at the battle.
"
the
surprise was everyone switched seats! Aaron converted to
Phoenix, Stu (unfortunately) to Shadowlands, and David to
Crab. "Know your enemy" literally.
Stu seems to always get
the short stick. In planning the Goblin Mob, I had high
aspirations. Likewise for the dueling dead. None
of these panned out. In some sense, Stu feels he really
won. For it was his army that fire stormed us to death.
A final Stu quote: just another "King of the Mountain
Victory".
0 VPs, 1 Campaign Move
Aaron is one lucky fellow.
He sat on his hunches and fired and fired. We were just
target practice. Not much of a summary, but that's what
happened. Near the end his Fire Dragon returned home to
stop the small remaining force that did make it to his
Hurricanes. Who purchased a single unit for 303 koku,
i.e. 4 VPs vs. 3 VPs for 300 koku.
9 VPs, 3 Campaign Moves
David really, and the
whole time, thought he could walk his Crab right into the
Hurricanes. I did, but just 3 of the Damned unit
remained. A dual with Togashi Kokujin led to my most of
my VPs. This was dashed by a unit of Kumo Nest.
Though I popped some Goblins at 6 koku each :)
7 VPs, 2 Campaign Moves.

Yep, upside down. We
