Re: Pythium (MA) strategy
yeah but if I took one just to have decent scales, or better dominion.. or would it still be a bad thing
btw I still not convinced not taking 5S and 2 F on my pretender will make the summoning of the host possible

Re: Pythium (MA) strategy
Take an absent pretender and decent scales only if your mages can handle SCs

Re: Pythium (MA) strategy

Re: Pythium (MA) strategy
Pythium's mages cannot handle Sc's until they get paralyze.
So if you have an enemy on your doorstep in 3-4 turns, then no they cant. But hydras are fairly tough, and likely could beat any sc not immune to poison at your capital(where hed have enemy dominion penalties.
In Fallacy, I gambled and took a dormant pretender. But i was
pretty worried about a rush for the 1st 3-4 turns.

Re: Pythium (MA) strategy
Hydras are Pythium's answer to most rushes. But you have to see it coming... making enemy advance through clouds of poison is great.
Of course, if Prince of Death or Ghost is coming to visit, you will be beaten and left with capital at best.
By the way, I have stopped a Vanheim rush with 6 ATs chaining smite... but I was lucky because Vanheim player only sent 14 Vans at first. And rest of them were spread. Still lost the game (to next enemy)
It's not about beating rush, it's about convincing neighbour it is not worth it. When rush fails, both players end out of running for victory.

Re: Pythium (MA) strategy
Pythium would laugh at a a POD or Ghost King if it rushed it.
Laugh. You have been hanging around your nephew too long Nik!
POD has no answer to solar rays. Evoc 2.

Re: Pythium (MA) strategy
Read the book for Pythium's special summons, they're listed in the summoned creature appendix.
You kill them the same sorts of way you kill most things - lots of damage, or beat their MR with the right type of spell.
