Agreed. It'd be nice to be able to tap+hold on a corpse's space, and have a contextual menu pop up with the choice of "Resurrect" or "Move To" for Clerics, Priestesses and Necromancers, similarly "Consume" or "Move To" for Wraiths.

You forgot the contextual menu popup for 'tea-bag'

They could totally make that IAP

Having said that, i've never actually even burned any of my 10 "free taunts". heh.

Parkingtigers just taunted me by accident on his opening play.

I'm still sitting on my initial 10 as well, so I've never seen it before. It was pretty cute, one team taunts and the other team reacts.

That's kinda weird, because the consensus among the player base (even here!) seems to be that the Dark Elves are underpowered. Which is stupid, because they are completely great.

Totally. I always pick random but I feel like I win more with Dark Elves. Once you can set up a fully upgraded necromancer, its very hard to lose.

I'm a fan of fully upgraded void monks. If you're facing another dark elf team there's almost nothing they can do short of burning a couple scrolls to kill you before you just heal up by punching guys.

Yeah I used to be scared of wraiths. Recently though, fully upgraded necromancers have been terrifying to face. 3 square attack range, enough wallop to take someone out, and then corpse destruction to deny any chance of a resurrection. Used properly, just one of those bastards can eat the heart of an opposing team.

Do they have more life than the spearladies? I almost never burn upgrades on them, they're usually bait or fodder.

Everything has the same hp, but they start with 20/20 resistances, while everything else starts with 0/0. I still wouldn't use upgrades on them though, their lack of range makes them significantly more vulnerable.

Goon Tourney Update:

Sorry for the missed day - I got probated for a low content post (the NERVE!) so couldn't do it yesterday. Between last update and this one, I only saw one change - I moved up so now I'm against Wachepti. Sent you a game invite awhile ago, (I think...)

In any case, update is HERE. (1/28/12, 10:20 PM central)

Dark ELves are awesome and it is just going to be hilarious when the dev team responds to all the whining on the forum and they become incredibly unbalanced.

They seem pretty solidly against it, thank god. They keep records of all the matches played, and apparently the win rates are very similar!

Nephzinho, get back on so you can steamroll me! It's been a day already and my guys miss your crushing touch.

I'm 0-1 with him/her/it already, so winning by timeout wouldn't feel totally right, even if it's my goal to win the whole thing by default.

What in the Christ are you talking about?!?! MATH?!?! This is supposed to be a friendly tournament, not a winner-take-all grudge-fest where you have to bring MATH into the equation.

I have half a mind to BAN you from the tourney for saying that. Lucky for you I didn't specify this in the rules. gently caress, next thing someone's going to say they are using psychology to play the game. Bah - a true player of honor just randomly throws poo poo out there and hopes for the best. That makes it a real test of skill.

Tourney update:

I beat PaintVagrant 2-1 so I'll be going on to face Bearded Ferret. Our last two games were very close, and very different. In one game I had a big material advantage but was down to one badly damaged crystal. I had to build a wall around it and pick off his suicide bombers as they tried to crack it open. Really tense stuff. The game that just finished had a big slugfest in the middle of the board, I was well ahead at one point but PV clung on tenaciously and I won with just 2 knights left and nothing in the deck.

Good times.

Yeah definitely some of the best games Ive played overall, really good and close all round. Very well played, you were an awesome opponent!

I thought I had you when my ninja took out that buffed archer, but your scroll+fireball in your hand thought differently

Im going to drop out of the losers tourney, I dont have time to play anymore for a while and Ive been playing this game WAYYYYY too much and dont want to burn out on it before all the sweet updates and new teams happen.

PaintVagrant is "out" - if you are scheduled to play "out" that means you have won. That's how it's going to be handled from here on.
