Round table

Yes, doesn't it fit?

It seems like it either doesn't fit or fits only partially :)
During the Nomad turn, Berserk is cast on air elementals, mages, and phoenixes:
Fish become vulnerable to attacks from phoenixes in the back row:
Phoenixes attack mages and air elementals through a cell:
I tried placing fish near birds – the same thing happens:

Although Phoenixes have access to both the right and left cells of the fish, they don’t attack them but instead target the mages.

And another interesting point – if you cast Berserk before the fish move, the phoenixes will attack the mages; however, if you place the fish next to the phoenixes and then cast Berserk, in the next round, the phoenixes will attack the fish.
