but that also costs you 240 points instead of 0.

Turmoil pays for luck. Otherwise you have to pay for both from somewhere else.

I choose turmoil/luck scales because of the Pan's Maenad spawning. With order-3 games I get very few Maenads in my dominion. Anyway, this game I can't even afford the Pans to get the Maenads. My early strategy is to race to Alt-7 and employ hordes of well buffed chaff. I took an awake rainbow sage to do primarily [in order] research, site searching, and forging.

Also sort of key to my early strategy is to get a Pan early on that has Death magic (+25% chance) to summon Carrion Centaurs to reanimate more chaff. My first one did not.

In test games with Magic Sites 60 I often found neato indy mages adjacent to my capital and am relying on them somewhat for diversity. Are there any Amazons in MA? I don't think I've seen any yet.

Last turn Luck netted me 250g and increased pd +15 in my capital. I also had an unrest event.

FYI, 2 dryads casting barkskin does not equal

As for my elite warriors dying... which is more expensive, 30 EW or 10-12 Minotaurs. I bet you weren't expecting the archers though

And wait till my Marshmasters arrive to play with your guys. You've got so few mages its laughable.

Well I still say your lizards just don't have style... at least compared to a big *ss kicking cow! Do you know where I can buy pills to get more mages?

Anybody know how to kill shadow vestals? They have too much MR to banish, they're immune to my spider poison, and I don't have any magic weapons.

Doesn't Flaming Arrows make your arrows magic damage? You can cast that and you have the archers. Enchant-5 in CBM though...
