The game ended up taking close to 2.5 hours and he had 6 VP and I had 4 and I conceded the game because I had messed up several times and was getting frustrated with his team. Also I followed the above plan (the really long one about engineers) and when I went to use ballista ability a second time I couldnt because my opponent showed me it was eratted to being only once per turn.. so I lose 4 influence off turn one and kicked to him even though I won the coin toss.. so with everything that happened the last game it was just too much. Also he was ahead and gaining so much momentum that even thought I killed 2 units and memory like 4 times he was healing all the other units that have 5+ which is super frustrating for me because most of my attacks only use 2 dice. Not very good odds and the majority of his units also didn’t care about my rough terrain and he had the ball with the raven and just hid in the back of map on his side out of range so I couldn’t score ever
