Like like your Orcs are taking a more northern approach than the free times I've played it. Interesting!

They were also in the South but just got a bloody nose… The ones in the North (Wildlands) are shifting South now

End of Spring Year 2. Drakenhold has fallen. Aureliana got a big scare but things are looking up. AotN and Imperial Heroes keep dying though…

Very eventful summer of Year 2! In the North, the Goblins have been crushed in Northern Fjordland, but after a massive battle, have captured the Dwarven stronghold of Dwelfholm, killing the Dwarf Hero Yeti in the process.

Things looking real bad for the forces of good in the North

And the Northmen have had to rush to shore up Southern Fjordland following the assassination of Karl Bondarsson by Luna, the Mist Hunter and the enslavement of the commander of one of the Berserkir unit.
In the South, following the destruction of Dominia, the Imperial Heartland has been freed,

but the Empire now has to scramble to block the black tide in the East, with the Orcs taking full advantage of the fall of Drakenhold last turn. Heavy fighting around the defensive perimeter of the last Dwarven city, Port Talonshield, which is slowly being eroded at great cost for the Orcs though…

Salut Morgane! What about it that you like the most and the least? :)

Pros:
- plays well, fast & furious
- factions feel and play differently
- epic!

Cons:
- rulebook poor organization and clarity
- non-specific decks of spells
- don’t see really the point of monsters

Monster get you treasures. Treasures can be amazing.

Right. Still. You are in the middle of a war for survival and you’re going to divert some of your best troops off to fight monsters?

And what about wandering monsters? They are not much of a nuisance… Unless to give yourself an opportunity to kill it? But can you attack a monster you command?

I usually fight monsters if they are on the way to where I'm going, or part of a line I'm setting up. Wandering monsters are kind of silly I'd say. I use them to harass the back lines of my enemy if I can.
