Re: OHS Season 35 - Reverse Draft - Round 4 until 4/16

I got the win v. Crixus33

It was a bit of an uphill battle for Crixus33 given the matchup - my range advantage plus high defense & Mezzos v. spiders.

I built my army very defensively in the startzone (Knights backed by Raelin covering the non-Lava spots near the road) and opened by sending Eldgrim to Kelda to burn it. I then went with MBS for a few turns trying to snipe advancing figures, but didn't hit many skulls before the spiders were on MBS. Round 2 I shifted to Mezzos, and their attacks plus some lava wounds killed the forward spiders. Crixus33 retreated the big bug just before my Crixus OM, so I just positioned Crixus on the road for later.

The next round was mostly positioning with a few small skirmishes - Eldgrim killed a spider and then died and a Mezzo shot a spider.

Round 4 opened with Crixus33 advancing Estivara to use the SA on my Crixus - she hit 2/3 on the special, Crixus went 1/5 defense, and then Estivara hit a 19 (combined with the spider on lodin) killing Crixus in one shot. The spiders then encircled a Mezzo in the north and hit a 15 (combined with lodin) to remove my OM3 on the Mezzos. Lodin was not my friend that turn. For the rest of the round, Crixus33 got my Mezzos down to 1 exo left and I killed about a squad and a half of spiders.

Round 5 I went 2 OMs on Mezzos, which finished most of the spiders but missed the heighted shots on the big bug while losing the last exo and 2 of the Mezzos (to the bug's SA before my last exo was gone). I had OM3 on Knights, which moved up onto the road along with killing one of the last 3 spiders.

Round 6 Crixus33 finally had to bring the big bug into my start zone, and killed Raelin in 2 OMs but died to Knights + Thorgrim attacking for 2 OMs as well.

Round 7 began the slow endgame of my MWs running & gunning against Estivara, Mittens, a few spiders and an Otonashi who never saw the shot coming. Took 3-4 rounds (Mittens lasted a while) but MWs did their thing well.

I won with 3 Knights, Thorgrim, MWs (3 on board), 1 Mezzo, Marcu, & Isamu.
