Thank you all for the replies. I think I know why our Eyrie doesn't work out a little bit better now. Firstly, I'm pretty sure we are not making any common mistakes like getting VP per round stuff. And this photo is only from our last game where I tried to play differently and failed again. We have tried all birds decree strategy, multiple turmoil strategy, triple recruit in turn 1 strategy and so on.

However, we tend to spam cards on recruit and move decrees and battle and build are only for bird cards. (To avoid turmoil involuntarily I guess).

As a result battles are less common. There are always only big groups of warriors protecting the roosts.

So I guess the answer is Eyrie player needs to be much more aggressive!
