Recently I've played my first full game of Runewars. Even that i lost it was amazing I want to ask you hovever about decisions that you would make in my place. I've played a solo ardus, 3x3 reanimates unit with frontline carrion lancer, venom banner, free turns musician, 2x1 carrion lancer unit with mastercrafted weapons and that card that gives piercing and 2 units of 2x1 reanimate archers with combat ingenuity, and I've faced 3x3 spearmen with frontline golem, 2x2 unit of oathsworn cav, 2x1 unit of oathsworn, kari solo and solo rune golem. We played bounty and game looked like this: ive placed my reanimates(my bounty) on the left side facing 2x2 cav unit and golem, in the middle my lancers faced spearmen(my opponent bounty), my both archers were on the flank and 2x1 cav was also there trying to flank . reanimates killed 2x2 cav, spearmen killed carrions, other cav 3 turnd did nothing trying to maneuver around a hill, then reanimates clashed with spearmen, ardus killed golem and helped with the spearmen and kari killed on archers unit and other oathsworn killed the other one. game ended with my reanimates alive almost full, spearmen almost full, both heroes alive and small oathsworn full. What would you do to win this game( i will post photos in a second) I lost 88 to 118 or something around that(maby i had 87)

I think the biggest thing here is trying to get your 2x1 archers to land 1+ blight tokens on that spearstar. That's how you neutralize it completely. So you need something to take care of Kari while that's happening? Maybe Ardus running up trying to get her? The problem is he has to make it past the spear star most likely to do that.

Were you able to blight the spearstar?

i was. 1 surge for 1 blight uell tehy had a lot of surges and in the last turn when both ardus and reankmayes got it they couldnt attack so they rallied to get bonus shield. the heavy blow was a reanimate morale that discarded my front line carrion lancer. that was the reason i didnt had full tray point on the reanimates. also i couk position my archers better.

I would stall the 3 by 3 block of spears with your reanimates and get points picking off the other units. Focus on killing kari killing his only unit with range while keeping your range units alive. The 3 by 3 spears with frontline rune golem is one of the toughest unit to deal with in the game. Best to avoid it and get points elsewhere. Toward the end, I go for 1 tray of those big blocks with a range attack just to get some points off it

Couldn't agree with Glucose more, blight them bad boys and get rid of their dice. force them to just sit there and rally/+1 defense the whole time, you take a tray away and now they're quite damaged. Blight the cavs too, make them roll 1-2 dice each turn if possible. Try to get a ton of blight on Kari and then hit her with a CL and spend those surges. blight to get rid of die and blight to spend surge. Otherwise, it's just a matter of blocking what you can and flanking what you need to.
