Got it, will correct.
I am unlikely to be able to play until the morning. Apologies, out and about.
Bastet is wisdom. Bastet is kindness.
Bastet will do everyone a favor in pointing out that the white Minotaur creature tile counters both Initiative and the Scorpion’s damage (not strength though), and that someone really needs to beat Lantz to the Crusade tile.
Okay, so the first top location can only proceed to either the 2nd top location or the 1st center location, and same with the bottom only going to the 2nd bottom or 1st center? Can the 2nd top location go to the 2nd bottom? The 3rd top to the 3rd bottom? The 2nd center to the 3rd top or bottom?
You can only move right. You cannot go to a different location on the same tile. Also, there is no center location on the second tile, and no path going up or down as you move to the second tile, so a top path priest on the first tile can only go to the second top location, and likewise for the bottom and the second bottom. From the second top one could go to the third top or one of the two central skill locations on the third tile, similarly for the bottom. The first tile center would go directly to one of the central skill locations on tile 3. From there, everyone goes to the VP on the fourth tile.
Appologies again for the delay, unexpected morning issues. 900,000 phone calls later, my turn:

Malkav, let me know if I am doing the actions right. I have the rules in front of me, but there is a chance I misinterpretted something. Anyways, without further ado:
I use the top row move action.
Ta Seti Path, advance to the +1 Strength when defending skill, claim it and replace unit on remaining troop with Priest. Any unit with a priest now comes with +1 Strength when Defending, which stacks with the Power Tile Defense! for a total of +2 Strength when defending.
Next, I teleport the remaining army to the unoccupied 3 Temple East. Stacking with Kraken, that is +3 Strength if attacked. Just so you guys know.
PP: 5-1 = 4.
Also, in case there was any doubt, I will use Hand of God to upgrade the blue pyramid at night.

Looks right to me. Annoyingly, this mod doesn’t distinguish Priests from other units, so I had to put a text label on it.
End of Day Phase
Bastet controls the Delta Temple and may sacrifice one unit to receive 5 PP. @Infested_terran, I will be assuming you want to do this but let me know if not and I’ll edit.
Sobek controls the eastern 2 point temple and receives 2 PP
Wadjet controls the western 3 point temple and receives 3 PP
Anubis controls the eastern 3 point temple and receives 3 PP
No one controls 2 temples and thus no one receives permanent VP.

In reverse turn order, please post your played battle card and PM me the discard. Also declare if you are using your Dawn tokens, if any.
@Greatatlantic, you are up.
My card. No dawn tokens. Discard incoming via PM.
Okay, now that everyone has their own Imgur gallery for the DI hand, shouldn’t be any need for PMs anymore. I’ll just add or subtract cards from the gallery as needed. (I will post in the thread when you’ve gotten cards, though!)
Yup, sacrifice to Delta temple.
Can we include both the poster name and color they are in every game state? It’s way too confusing for me going by just what god everyone is.
I play the 4 strength card. I choose to go 4th.
Order choice is

The thing is, in the mod I have a big ol’ picture of every god on the player cards and every unit is labelled with the gods and none of these things are true of the player name because you’re not playing the mod with me. So it’s much easier for me to keep track of what’s going on by god. And, IMO, more flavorful. Would it work for people to start prefixing their actions with their god name (and color, sure)?
By the way - if people need to keep track of the game state between turns, that’s fine, but could you please use the “Hide Details” option (it’s under the gear icon in the post menubar) to collapse that stuff so that it’s easier to pick out your action?
