So the rules currently say to PM me your choice of tactics, but I wonder if that's necessarry. It's probably easier to just post them, but I don't know if that creates too much incentive for people to wait and see what others are doing (but then again, what other people choose doesn't have a huge impact on what you do). Thoughts?

Just go for spoiler blocks so we can't see the opponents play but can discuss with our allies.

Morgothra has the Syntax and Grammar of a God.
I love this card.

So, anyone want to legitimately strategize? And if so, in what medium? Steam, skype, facebook, this forum?
Edit: Our team is literally unkillable.

it'd be really nice to have the character sheets in the OP if that's not too much work, Kavu. that way I can check at a glance what my team has instead of cross-referencing with the other thread.

also when an ability mentions allies, is the person with that ability included or is that just others? if it includes them, is that taken into account on my gold table?

'Allies' means your entire team. I'll edit Garrod's stat sheet for himself accordingly, everyone else will have to do the math. (It'll probably end up looking like Gold: 10 (+5)) (that means 15) (or should it be 15 (10 +5)?) (or maybe it should not affect himself? For now, it still will)
Yeah, I can put stat tables in the OP, that makes sense. I'll probably do that tomorrow.

so a quick overview of my assumptions on proper startegy this round:
Morgothra: we want you to take some damage first, to power up your damage output, so I think farming is gonna be useful. if you score even a 2 this round you can buy yourself a greatsword thanks to my support ability, and farming gives you the most presence, making you soak up some damage to push you toward your explosion threshold. once you get low I can protect you pretty well, since if you defend you'll only have 3 presence, and you can go aggro when necessary. but for now I definitely think you should farm.
razorborne: I don't think the presence difference matters much and I'd like to stay out of Morgothra's way, so I think I should go aggro. I don't really need much gold, although healing potions will obviously be useful for me. still, right now, getting some early damage in seems good.
Jessica: you're our weakest character, HP-wise. with my support though you can have only 2 presence while defending, which is pretty good. I think we're gonna do best having you defend and then ocassionally get a 5 and explode all over everything, but especially this round since, again, I'd like Morgothra to take some damage. once he's low enough to get better damage it might be worth having you come out and start aggroing.
Confused: right now farming is probably your best shot. it helps keep Morgothra exposed and lets you save up to buy Swiftfoot Boots, which you will definitely put to good use later on. it'll also give you some money for potions.
basically, I think we should try to maximize the damage Morgothra takes this round while building up gold for later. that means Morgothra puts himself out in the open while the rest of us hide as best we can. remember that, in addition to your own abilities, mine affects all of you.

I think the 10(+5) wording works best. but just FYI aggressive is strictly better than defensive for Garrod. the only thing defensive has is slightly higher presence, but his ability bumps that down to the same and aggressive just deals more damage and gets the same gold at every level.
