This week's Battle Mage rule set challenge was Fury in which every monster gains the Fury ability. This means every monster does double damage against taunting monsters!
Fury general strategy....
Well there's not too much to say, other than AVOID any monsters using taunt!
I guess that also means maybe switching up any splinter you'd usually use with taunt.
And it probably means that mutliple sneak and snipe strategies are more likely to be used, so it could be worth thinking about some sort of defence against these!
FURY battle exemplar
The battle below shows a comprehensive victory featuring this ruleset
Mana and rulesets:

- Osha - For the resurrect
- Dr Blight - affliction and poison, nasty!
The battle...
- round 1 - I take out the Pelacor Deceiver

- round 3 - I take out the BoneSmith and the Sheeva!
- round 4 - I lose my Legionnaire but take out Ureas
- round 5 - It's all over, I take out the windeku!
Final battle analysis
I was happy to see my opponent going for sneak attacks, I was well defended against those with double triage. However I forgot about Camo negating those sneaks, oh well!
Not sure what playing Cursed Windeku in the back was about, what a waste!
He set himself up to lose by having too fewer attacks!
Fury final thoughts...
Actually playing Lily makes it act like you're playing Taunt but without the Fury penalty, not a bad idea at all!
