A.
blue 5
crow shaman 26
duergar champ 33
elf warrior 4
fire giant forge priest 84
green spawn sneak 6
healer 12
inspiring marshal 29
map: mushroom cavern

strategy is use crow shaman to beef up ac on giant and doogie, maybe marshal and elf warrior (mainly for ranged bonus). sneak for victory area points,
blue can have a chance for 5 damage each turn for support from the back,
fire giant moves into battle and gets SS from crow shammy, duergar finds a way to fit into the battle, possibly going around to opponents back lines.
healer stands next to FGFP and heals. Elf warrior might move away to shoot at their victory area fodder, possibly with blue as well. marshal GMA is
ussed at critical time to get the 2 hitters into the right spot to kill, and
with melee reach 2 and cleave with a 30 damage attack on FGFP you can get into some nice spots. Crow shammy w/ FGFP should be near 90 damage a round and if he cleaves on his turn and on shammy's turn that would be 150 damage a round, then doogie as a back up hitter means massive damage output. Chastise spirits can be used on SWarm.

N.
Quaggoth Slave 10
Regdar, Human Fighter 6
Skeletal Legionnaire 4
Tordek, Dwarf Champion 59
Urthok the Vicious 34
Vlaakith 79
Wolf 5
Xeph Warrior 3
Map: Keep of Fallen Kings I

I figure commander 5 ought to get me my map often enough. The strategy is to get to the central victory areas and hold my own while preventing my opponent from holding his. With Urthok and Vlaakith near Tordek, Tordek is a monster. Additionally, the Quaggoth Slave becomes a terrifying prospect against paralyzed foes. The early fireball could help reduce my opponent's VA grabbers, and the near-guarantee of 30-damage from the disintegrate means I can whittle a titan down to size before Tordek engages.

Down with the Forgepriest!! Maybe people are letting their disdain for the fig be shown, hehe
