Summoner Wars iOS!!

[KiloOhm]

Lordpolish on gamecenter. Newbie to the game like everyone else.

Really enjoying it so far although the AI isn't very smart.

[Dave Perkins]

Also enjoying it even with just the free team. I am 0-4 vs the AI.

I created a Summoner Wars Rollcall thread:

[Dave Perkins]

Thanks, GeeWhiz!

Also, is there any special meaning to the symbol that pops up on dice when you roll them? Is that just a coolass way of saying you rolled a 6?

[Harkonis]

I think that is indeed the 6

[Dave Perkins]

Would it be okay if I thought of it as an 11? Cuz I like to go all the way.

[GeeWhiz]

I'm assuming it works using Gamecenter? If so, that shouldn't be an issue as long as you use different Gamecenter handles. My wife and 2 kids share the same account for purchasing games but all use different GC handles and have no issues using a single copy on multiple devices that way in all other games we have. Apple allows 5 devices to share apps.

My son created a new game center ID but it forced him to create a new iTunes account to do so.


When he goes into Summoner Wars it does not recognize that we purchased all the decks. He has to purchase decks; a family cannot play each other without having more than one copy.


Unless we are doing something wrong?

So I was able to play just fine, then they updated it, and now I can't create games. Soon as I click create the app crashes.

Same thing happened to me. I reinstall and it seemed to fix the issue for the moment.

That did the trick.

Also I think I like the Goblins the most, haven't fully decided yet.

OOOOOOOOoooooo I was wondering that too.

Thanks!

The board game has customized dice available for each faction; I am thinking they included them in the iOS version. Does the dice change depending on which faction is doing their turn? I will have to watch more closely.

Enjoying SW very much.

Really having fun playing the different decks.

Having fun with the Ret-Talus deck the most though.

Beaten the AI every game excet my first playthrough.

Yep, each faction's 6 die is unique. It's a small but cool touch.

I'm still working out which faction will be my main faction, I can see good points in many of them. I currently find myself liking the guild dwarves and the fallen kingdom a lot though. The reapers of the fallen kingdom are just too cool. If you play them right they can become crazy powerful for very little cost.

So many units to learn in this game.

[GeeWhiz]

Does anyone know what amount of time it will take between new factions and their appearance in the iOS version?

[Chris Gwinn]

Can anyone point me towards a brief summary of the various decks?

[forgeforsaken]

Cave Goblins OP.

[Harkonis]

Cave Goblins definitely have some really nice events

[magnet]

Can anyone point me towards a brief summary of the various decks?

From toucharcade forums:

Phoenix Elves - direct damage to reduce die roll randomness
Tundra Orcs - strong combat values, weaker abilities/event cards
Guild Dwarves - wall destruction
Cave Goblins - swarm with lots of cheap, weak units
Fallen Kingdom - undead faction, lots of recover from graveyard, "magic point economics" are very different from other factions
Vanguards - strong offense, weak defense, only decent healers in the game, most often slow played until you can get a strong champion out
Cloaks - weaker units, but lots of "tricky" effects, Summoner can copy any other unit's ability, and that's usually the key to playing well
Jungle Elves - stronger units, lots of movement effects

[Harkonis]

This game is really doing a number on my iphone's battery

[DeForrestation]

This game is really doing a number on my iphone's battery

The AI turns cause the battery indicator to drop while you watch. Like the fuel gauge on a dragster!

Also Jungle Elves (that name, really?) 4evuh.

[KiloOhm]

So started playing the fallen. They are interesting. Got my ass kicked by the ai 4 games in a row before I started to figure out how to play them.

[GeeWhiz]

I am thinking we need a third thread called:

Summoner Wars Trash Talk - brag about how you are beating up poor old GeeWhiz (geetop).

;>)

@Jorune

Good Game!

Thanks for playing with me. My first time playing on Game Center.

[DeForrestation]

@ Justin Fletcher

Thanks for playing (and beating me) in that unsolicited game. Why did I think your summoner was gonna stay there on the last turn!? /headslap

[Dave Perkins]

You guys probably want a league for this, don't you.

[DeForrestation]

You guys probably want a league for this, don't you.

Did you shell out a buck yet? Two words WORTHIT WORTHIT.

[RainRaven]

Just a buck? He should have bought the entire bundle already.

[Rob O'Boston]

You guys probably want a league for this, don't you.

Dave, did we ever tell you, you're the best? Perkins for President!

[Tyjenks]

Dave, did we ever tell you, you're the best? Perkins for President!

I tried to tell him that, but he shrugged it off. Sometimes greatness is thrust upon you.
