>>6312341Objective: secure the border
>1: Flamethrower barbecue (elemental MAGIC fortress)Units are transferred from armies and the stationary flamethrower barbecue is established where the black fort once stood. The jungle canopy scorches to a crisp, and any ant in the vicinity would smell the burning, harvested entrails of their brethren. This icon will serve as the point where the entire ant wall will be cooked, and then distributed to resting krawl armies, as army Hi and the krovians make ground in their raids. The boosted magic fire will engulf the entire hex, and make it less habitable for anyone but the resting Fo krawl army inside it. Krovians have been advised to steer clear, unless they for some reason need to steer close.
>2: VolcanonYet another stealth upgrade for this type of unit, formerly the volcanog. So secretive and hard to spot, its presence could be anonymous on the field.
>War: Border jamboreeWith the cores now cornered and separated from a large segment of the wall, army Hi finally swaps places with that of army Fu. Fu rests along the border with the two krovian armies, securing defense as they stand by at their posts, and wait for roasted ant piles to come in and restore their nutrients. Fo remains at the ruins to rest, hold position, and upkeep the elemental magic of the new flamethrower barbecue in that hex. Unfortunately, the krovians seem less interested in eating the ants after they’ve been killed, but do take great tastings when the local high krawl kindly allocate some of the multiplying krawl units from Fu and Fo for them to boil and eat as they resuscitate. Ants become the food that feeds down the chain regardless, and a miles long jamboree starts as the previous and ongoing victory settles in everyone’s minds and guts. The far distribution makes for a secure defense on the border and supply lines, which the ants or elves would not dare to encroach upon. Meanwhile, Army Hi and the krovians use the opportunity to snipe off the wall’s cores and bring the resulting fresh meat back to the barbecue, where it will be eaten
Tl;dr, Fu and Fo are resting/on standby, and Hi is attacking with the support of the fresh krovian army. Thaloris joins army Fo at the barbecue, to offer a lifeline for the resting troops in case of sudden raids. Fo casually burns ants that it and Fu eat and use to multiply. Some of the newly created krawl are allotted to the also resting krovians. (Check action and pic related for army positions.)
>Intrigue: waiting for the coresUnarmed troops are stationed at different locales along the ant wall, so as to see if covering more area is better at determining the locations of the cores for long enough to strike them down.
(Message for the mapper: please rename all armies to Fi, Fo, and Fum?)
