I would like to introduce you to Annie.

Annie is the first Wizard ever in this history of Amurites. Welcome Annie.

In unrelated news, the barbarian kill squad has stepped out.

My forces rushed in to get the archer in response. I have 2 Bronze Warriors, a Scout and an adept in the city. Annie is rushing there to summon a host.

Just so long as you don't get me killed early, I can handle being the slow one in the class smile.

My sacrifical warrior won on 13% odds. What were the chances? Anyways, new city with cows and two gems. Oh, and yummy pillage gold. Enough to upgrade 3 adepts!

I'd say about 13%.

If you have five 13% fights, there is a greater than 50% chance you win at least one of them.

Especially since i lost 4 50% fights before, eh. Luck must surely turn around.

Of course since the kill stack is attacking next turn, luck might bite me and kill off an adept.

All right. Now that i have wizards, what can i do to win this game? Conquest or Domination are possible, but i'm facing off against huge orcs, scary vampires, devil-worshipping elves, horse riders, and fanatical warriors. I'm not very enthusiastic about my chances.

Culture? I don't have enough. Wrong religion, most wonders are gone, i don't even have festivals for goodness sake.

Tower of Mastery? I have one magic node. Total. I will grab the Dragon Bones spot for one more, but that's it. I need 4 in total for a complete tower, or i need to trade with someone else (and have 3). Not likely.

Altar. I have 0 great prophets, no way of getting more.

So Conquest or Domination it is. I need to expand to my north easy, and take out Mist first (The Bannor) i think. Vampires are going to war with Elves (and Orcs will join in), while Horses are unknown. Maybe Bannor and Horses will war. So i need to step in that area.

This is an RB first, isn't it? Wizards, I mean.

I know that they're basically just doublecasting mages, but what's the current spell load-out you have? Everyone talks as if Ammurites getting wizards have just hit the win button.
If only you and me and dead people know hex, then only deaf people know hex.

I write RPG adventures, and blog about it, check it out.
