Actually, one of jcb's points is that a short time limit works in favor of the summon/heal combo. If you can knock out a single army card's worth of figures, then the onus is on your opponent to...

Put #1, #2, and #X on the Biggie, and #3 on Kelda.

When turn #3 rolls around, go ahead and heal the Biggie. If it's a small heal (1 or 2 damage), and Biggie still has wounds, you can then put #1...

Re: What's in an Order Marker?™

Nice write-up. I thought the "Shark" designation was particularly clever.

I'm curious why you marked the Sacred Band and Armoc Vipers as "2nd-Stringers." While they certainly don't have as many...

As long as you're taking Raelin and Q9, you might as well add in the Krav, too.

Units that seem broken to me:
Q9
Raelin (RotV)
Deathreavers

By "broken," I'm talking about units that give way...
