5542 Spring Steel

[Senior Tactician]

What was that army, 56 brigades? I never saw a breakdown but with your limited companions, that must have been expensive.

I suppose it wont hurt to talk about this now since I just did that legendary cracking article.  I am still learning myself, I was convinced that if the HA dispelled my fear spell, I would bounce off stormgate, which is why I didn't try it.  I was also convinced that if I stole my ring of spells back, that you grabbed from my region, earning you that capitol sac and agent deaths... you wouldn't be able to take stormgate either without crack the sky... with well under 50 brigades, you must have a lot of elites and probably took a bunch of damage.

I threw 59 brigades together, I think.  Ghouls 5, minos 5, specters 7, zamorans 13 and paladins 10, with some illusionists that I should have removed to make room for promotes and 15 skeletons only because I was in a REAL hurry as I was also convinced the HA was going to grab 5 regions.  With crack, fear and valor, I took a HA 209k legendary with only 7% casualties last turn.
