That's how many golden teeth one could collect here... 😋

🤑🤑🤑
But can you even sell them? Or do you have to stand at the market for a week for that? :D

Virgin Felicians: use mysterious equipment that, due to its size, has to be painstakingly defended tactically
Chad Carneol: calls on a cell phone invented the technology of communicating in gray text a quarter of a century ago

🎪🏹: And Guiosha could actually look beyond the fourth wall and saw everything happening in the game!
⛓️♿: And suffered from hellish migraines. Besides, it still didn't do any good anyway, it was only used for gags.
🐱🐲: Well, I'm not some munchkin.
⛓️♿: And now you've completely removed that ability from me.
🐱🐲: As I said, it's hard to break the fourth wall in a way that looks elegant and not silly, so we'll do without it.
🎪🏹: But real telepathy would have been oh so useful! Then we would... We...
⛓️♿: Exactly! We... =_=
🐱🐲: Well, let's not dwell on the sad stuff.

You string them together into a necklace and sell it to a Calcite drug lord for 10,000 bucks.

Yeah, but we're short on "bucks" here...

- Come by my room tomorrow at five in the morning, and I'll see what I can do with your equipment.
The former priestess leaves, and the samurai also decides to take a look at the instructions tomorrow – with a fresh mind.

—That's what I'll do... —he doesn't manage to finish the words of gratitude after the departing figure, so instead, he expresses them to the protector. —...Thank you. We'll try to do our best. —waving to the zombie samurai, the zombie botanist adds: —Share the recipe later. Maybe we'll come up with something.

Then, Asmidul also goes to sleep. Already halfway there, he shakes a gold tooth out of his pocket with slight surprise and pauses for a moment. —...When did I even get this...? —placing his hand on his face, he laughs silently, and then also skips the day until morning.

Am I correct in understanding that the commander, not Kurva, is currently in charge of the mechanics? Do dodges, shields, defense, and willpower work against bombardment?

Before the battle, Ushumgallu gathers his squad – to check that everyone is equipped with desert gear and to deliver an inspiring speech.
-- Warriors of the sixty-ninth! The place and time of the battle have been chosen, and the task has been defined. As the best squad of Asuguh, we have been given the most glorious task – to decapitate the Karin Serpent, known as Kurva. Most of you have already shown that you are made of the best human material; the rest – be worthy of your comrades. Those who disobey orders or flee without command will face a fate worse than death – I will personally take care of that! Prepare your hands for a long bloodbath, your feet for a swift rush, but above all, prepare your souls for ruthlessness and fearlessness. It will not be easy – but there is no victory without pain. Our enemies are numerous, but let not the faceless hordes of Felicians intimidate you. The stabs of their spears and arrows are no stronger than mosquito bites! -- Ushumgallu pulls back his collar and reveals two scars from some Calcite archer's arrows. -- This ridiculous, contemptible pair of impostors on the throne of Calcite – they have called for help from bespectacled rats and faceless people. Let not their ugly souls and bodies confuse you – they die just like any living creature. I expect all of us to increase our glory today, to kill, kill, and kill again – until the sand around us is red with the blood of Felicians, and let the screams of horror of these outcasts reach the ears of the false queen when we come for their lives! Ah yes. When you cut the throats of these wretches, try to stay alive yourselves. Then we can enjoy the victory together and, of course, get a good reward!

Fun fact: on the very bottom line, snipers cannot reach. You can stand and spam with the Shaitan-Tube.

After hearing the commander's cool speech over a cigar, Genza adds laconically:
- Interesting folks perched up there on those perches. Let's kill them!

Before the battle I drink a potion and swap 1 intellect for faith, then learn Resurrection. is it definitely that one or better healing/cleansing?

resurrection is better just in case, +atim will pour in after the war, so it'll stay with us

reminder that I took the third skill of Veserod, and that the old man had one siege left. if Wushu isn't going to spend it, then let him use kamik on Eclipse (in this particular fight I think it might be more useful than learning Path of Zero)

btw if the old man dies and blows up with this: >Fire Retribution, it'll hit us too, so we need to be careful with him, better not throw him on a suicide run.
+ his cloak should fall onto his shoulders 🤓

Before the battle Ushumgallu assembles his squad -- to check that everyone has desert gear equipped

literally everyone, even you and Ilka? the rest can probably swap shoulders and boots without much loss

 

gray walls - no way to climb them? the hole in it - 9>6 + 1>5?

is one unit enough to put on the purple one? then on another map or right here?
and where are the named spearmen?

Of course, I'd like to have OS in Baldur... But surviving Kurv is even more important.

Ilke should probably take a banner instead of a shield. 35% block is worse than paralysis immunity.
It's more complicated with Ushu. Three mages will just spam storms, but OD is worth its weight in gold. I'm leaning towards the lion's cloak.

Are we going to stand on the edge and buff ourselves with the pipe and other buffs? The old man can take out two snipers on his fourth turn (the wall doesn't give immunity to area attacks, right?), so we probably need to engage.

If we manage without the Eclipse on Kamik, we might have +2 units in the next battle. And I suspect that it will only get worse from here.

Asmidul's new day begins. For now, Shiki hasn't eaten his brains overnight.

Maybe then a fragment of Tann's soul would be suitable?

- Well, then "on my word," I have nothing else to offer," Erika sighed sadly.
- And what could have "aesthetic" and other values for you?

- I'll tell you if I see it. But in general, you can look at it this way - this bag has functional value for you, while the things you offer me have no value at all: you won't be able to sell them for a decent price in case of anything, there's nothing to admire, and the fact that these are typical items of not the highest class won't motivate you to return for them, except for a sense of duty.

If you destroy a wall with a siege weapon, will the creature standing on it be killed?

Am I correct in understanding that the commander is now in charge of the mechanism, and not Kurva?

Yes.

Do dodges, shields, defense, and willpower work against bombardment?

No, yes, yes, no.

gray walls - is it impossible to climb them?

Yes.

a hole in it - 9>6 + 1>5?

Yes.

is it enough to place one unit on the purple one?

As many as you want to transfer to the next stage of the battle.

then on another map or here?

On another, but it will be part of the same battle.

and where are the named spearmen?

Who knows...

If the wall is collapsed with a pipe, will the unit on it be destroyed?

Yes.

You can confidently position your units as if nothing will happen. Two snipers will be eliminated before they even get to move. But will this strategy work against those on the building?

Yes, the main thing is not to collapse the passages.

Does permanent damage ignore frenzy?

Unexpectedly, Camistella realized that at that moment, she wanted nothing more than to kill identical Calcite warriors of all kinds, and therefore, without any shame, she left the artist in the care of the Skraems and rushed to prepare for the campaign. With incredible intuition, she found Erish and made him dress according to the latest desert fashion, and then she herself put on anti-Calcite boots and a cloak. “Beauty is beauty, but these invaders are not worthy of being killed by our accursed sands!” the Lunarian sternly justified the change of footwear. “Let’s dance on their burial mounds with black flames!” In reality, reducing her attractiveness also reduced Camistella’s combat potential, but a sudden death in the sands or the loss of her boots would clearly be too significant a threat to pursue additional damage. Also, the Lunarian and her faithful guardian learned the latest inside information about the enemy camp. Camistella was even a little scared by such news, because Sergeant Kurva could single-handedly destroy half of their squad and not even get tired in the process. And what a predicament... it was precisely her that Protector 69 ordered to eliminate! “It looks difficult...” Camistella muttered, examining the enemy fortifications. “The city will fall sooner or later, but killing Felicia’s chosen one and not losing half of the squad in the process may turn out to be even more difficult than defeating the rest of the enemy army. Are you ready for battle, Erish? As usual: we are behind the first line, I cast spells, and you protect me.” Due to his nature, the glorious Rinzeite would hardly agree to leave his mistress and rush into close combat, so the beautiful couple was to begin the battle in neighboring positions. “For Asuguh!” the Lunarian waved to Commander Ushumgall. “Death to the servants of the robber king!” True, Sergeant Kurva did not participate in the invasion of Asuguh and was most likely simply honestly defending the city entrusted to her, but who cares about that now? War is war! And Kurva is as terrifying as death, even if she is charismatic.
