Edit what do you guys think? Will or work for this goal?"

Use this one. that is all that is on the cover.

Made some discoveries early this morning. After this next week when we go in to round 3 and combine teams. Currently we have Attack 175 Defense 231. I know we will be adding more to it. Looking at the other teams when they combine next round.
Genghis Kahn/Vercingetorix A:184 D:219
Achilles/Vlad A:163 D:210
Alexander/Hector A:169 D:208
We are a minimum of 33 points behind to beat their defenses.

If you are in the mood for a good post apocalypse sci-fi piece of amazing pick this one up. It is a bit chunky but worth it

We have really been racking up the defense points. I am going to try to raise the number of attack points for this round. I have been saving a couple of chunky ones just for the occasion.

Thank you

Reading goal. Read a book about someone that lives in a castle. Imperial palace in the Forbidden City in China, would that count.

Hello to all. As we are team Leonidas I have to say it.

THIS IS SPARTA!!!!

WooT! Now for round 2

In the book Mossflower the main characters meet in a castle and escape the dungeon. Would that be good enough for the goal?
