    you can be affected by any number of spells, but the important thing to note is that effects from something with the same name never stack. so if she hits you with a -2 defense spell three times, you will be at -2 defense. but it could stack with any other affect that gives you -2 defense for a cumulative -4 defense.

    funny enough, my wife is also starting Circle. what caster is she running? doesn't sound familiar, but my wife has really only messed around with eKrueger so far.

    The effects do not stack if they cone from the same named source. For example: if a unit uses the ability "Snipe" (+4 RNG) then the spell "Snipe" would not give them a further +4 RNG. Same with your situation, you'd only take the effect once. Now, if she had more than one way to debuff your SPD and Def, then it would stack. This is how that guy you played,Blue shirt guy, would have made you cry bitter tears with his normal lost. I applaud will for taking a list that is outside of his norm and bot gating it up with Cryx on a new guy.

    I don't think he was going exceptionally easy on you, part of this game is failed assassinantion runs and it seems he tried his best to take you out. Def 18 is a tough nut to crack and Sorscha is no slouch in the damage boxes.

    Also, Im not sure you are ready for 15 pt games, should play more battle Box or mangle metal games. I say this only because your infantry is good, but needs more to fill out. Also, it seems you really like jacks so I want to show you some cool stuff to do with The Buther, Vlad, or Karchev.

    I know kind of last minute.
    I have some time early Saturday (5/7) morning and was looking for a Warmachine game. Shoot me a PM if you can.

    She was using the the warlock in the battle box, kaya wildborn or something.

    Yeah Ive just been playing games wth the box now. That game you saw me stay was my second game ever. I was trying to just run through the motions if the game but everyone was telling me what to do strategy wise while I was busy thinking about rules, I felt bad for feeling frustrated because I know people are just trying to help. But I had fun and I am getting better

    I like bots and infantry it just I have thrwe jacks and I was excited to use them. I know now how hard it is to run 3 with sorcha. I was actually reading about karchev and he sounds like a fun all eggs in one basket kind of guy. I think I might proxy him for a few games

    Yeah man, look towards Karchev, Butcher or Vlad! I've got models for all that (Except Kaechev) and I'll let you borrow them next game night.

    Haha, my fiancee is starting Circle too! She's planning on using Baldur with constructs.

    If either of your wives need the Circle card deck, I have an opened but never used one. For cheap. PM if you need it as I won't be using them.
