How I use the program (a short session report w/ pics)

by **telengard** » 08 Apr 2011, 03:24

I like to use the program (when I'm not coding/testing) with real miniatures on a table. The program works very well for that. Here's a picture of me playing at my dinner table.

I made two quick warbands out of my Anvilborn miniatures and played against the AI. I played @ a depth of 8 and ended up winning 6 to 4. The AI managed to tie a lot of turns too so it was a somewhat long, tense game. The AI also used its two Droning Damselflys very well. I made a bunch of mistakes, mostly around not utilizing the spawn ability of the Sabrefang Warriors. I did find one bug while playing w/ Bloodtusk Throne. The two warbands used were:

AI player

Bestial Silhouette
Writhing Sorcerer
Droning Damselfly
Droning Damselfly
War Eagle
Fireman
Foul Beetle
Zungar Shieldsworn
Lion Rampant
Lion Rampant
Archangel Tommy
Zungar Envoy
Blind Envoy
Savannah Harrower
Dreamwatch Sphinx
Elite Gladiator

Me

Hulking Brute
Stormwatch Siren
Sabrefang Warrior
Sabrefang Warrior
Soul Slicer
Soul Warden
Gun Behemoth
Bloodtusk Throne
Femme Fatale
Bladestrider
Mr. Friend
Brainghast
Dreamscape Prophet
Warmonger
Lady of the Manor
Abyssal Predator

This is a screenshot of the end of the game.

I really like the ability to roll real dice when it's my turn. Has anyone else tried this that owns the game?

This was a great report, thanks telengard. Screenshots like that really help translate the Dreamblade experience.

Yep, i did (when i had time playing, honestly it' s a month since my last game :p) and it's really great :-)

But still, i always win against the AI, while with same warbands, usually i ended up against HI in something closer (3-3 or so...),

I've been improving the AI (default depth is now 7 and I think it could be

so it is giving me a good run for my money.

It's challenging for me.
6 to 4 is pretty good and the AI tied a lot of turns which was good to see. I'm probably an average player and this was with pretty random warbands.

I should try playing against the AI with it playing Chessmaster or something.
