Game A

Zark, decide on your positions for your starting Wizards. I trust you not to move them around, but I'm going to write where they are, only encoded, so that Poison Mushroom can see what I'm doing.

Game A

Since I've already got mine down, once you've chosen, you can decide whether you want to go first or not. (Remember that there's a First Player Advantage Rule.)

OK, I have decided on placement and saved a pic, will reveal all when we're done (or earlier to Poison Mushroom if they want to see).

How do you want to determine first turn? Virtual coin flip on a die rolling site?

EDIT: Just saw your post, if we're not randomly deciding I'll go second :)

Okay, that's fine.

For my first turn, I'm going to strategize. boswotgwnxpglc

OK, using my second turn bonus, I will Double Strategize

I'm going to try an attack, then. B1!

Okay, hold up. I'm a moron. That's not right. A3.

Zark the Damned

Fortunately I got your change before responding! ;)

A3 is a miss. I shall retaliate and attack B2

Crikey, wasn't expecting that! Gonna try press the advantage and attack D2!

ActingPower

D2 is also a miss. I'm going to respond with C2!

C2 misses my dudes, I shall respond with an attack on C3

That's a miss.

Hmm... will try again, this time on B3

ActingPower
Jun 4, 2013

That's a miss, too.

But I think it's time for your troll to die. C3!

You think you have the wherewithal to figure out my puzzle vagina?
I think, once this game is done, I'll put together a quick play-by-play so anyone watching can see the game in 'real time', so to speak.

ActingPower

For the record, it's really fun so far! It'll be interesting to see what the endgame is like.

Zark the Damned
Mar 9, 2013

Fortunately for me, C3 is a miss too. Let's see how your Dragon at C4 fares!

A play by play afterwards would be neat, I can help with templates and graphics if you like (I'm already saving each of my moves using it).

Re the endgame I have an inkling the game could end up in an un-winnable state depending on where we both attack, but we'll see. I'm digging it so far though!

ActingPower
Jun 4, 2013

I see. So that's the secret of this game. Make your pieces look like other pieces. 'Cuz that's a miss too.

Or maybe we need to stop guessing what the other player has. :cheeky:

That does seem entirely possible, in a long, drawn-out game. I think it'd take something almost deliberate action, though. Still, I'll add a stalemate clause to the rules.

Man, when the big reveal happens there's gonna be like a field full of wizards on your side :)

Let's give A3 a shot.

No, that's a miss, too.

B3?

As to the number of pieces on my side, you'll just have to see, won't you? :smuggo:

B3 is a palpable miss! Gonna try B4 in response.

B4 is a miss.

I'm gonna strategize. rhegoggctd

Hmmm... how about B5?

All this strategizing is making me nervous like I'm playing the game wrong :)

ActingPower
Jun 4, 2013

No, I'm just an idiot.

B4. I gotta hit you sometime. >_<

ActingPower
Jun 4, 2013

Basically, the reason why I'm strategizing so much is 'cuz I'm trying to get angles to hit you.

Zark the Damned
Mar 9, 2013

I take it I missed?

B4 totally hits (I suspected I'd give that away with my last bunch of attacks).

I'm strategizing this turn.

ActingPower
Jun 4, 2013

Yeah, sorry about that.

Hmm... attack to C1, then.

Zark the Damned
Mar 9, 2013

No problem! C1 is a miss, I'm gonna retaliate at B1

ActingPower
Jun 4, 2013

B1 is a miss.

Oh, C4. I haven't attacked there, right?

Zark the Damned
Mar 9, 2013

You certainly hadn't attacked there yet, but it's still a miss :)

Gonna give D4 a shot myself.

ActingPower
Jun 4, 2013

Okay, that's a miss.

I'm gonna... attack D3, I guess? You're stumping me with these moves, man.

Zark the Damned
Mar 9, 2013

D3's a miss. I'm gonna try it myself! (attack D3).

It's a real brain burner trying to figure out what spaces can attack all of these squares!
