Ok some basic rules:
Each turn you have four action and one action for your avatar. Your avatar can only make that action. Moving from one place to another is a free action (you can do other things while travelling or as you get to the place) but may take several turns.

Each turn you get 4 summoning powers. You can only use one of them each turn. Unused cards stay. The powers that you get are random, and they can be: summoned units, summoned heroes, summoned creatures, summoned treasures or divine spells. Summoned units, heroes, creatures or treasures stay in game as long as the stability roll is passed. For each summoned creature, hero, treasure or unit that you have in game you have to get less than a 7-N on a six sided die roll, N being the number of summoned units, heroes, treasures and creatures you have. If you roll equal to or more than 7-N, you have to discard one of the summoned units, heroes, treasures or creatures. Some artifacts can modify the roll.

Some more powerful summoning powers may require for a roll. The roll will be made with a random characteristic. Summoners may roll a second time to see which characteristic will be used and use the highest of them.

I'm finishing the random summoning powers.

Also I'll post your units, resources and results of your actions in spoilers, but you'll send me your actions for the turn on a pm. When you want to use the chessmaster power, you choose a player and you get to see their actions and change one of them.

Note on Population: This isn't the whole population. Just the ones not doing anything vital like producing the weapons for your soldiers.

In order to get more units, you need infrastructure. Once you have it, you may create units until their unit cost is equal to your resources (so a unit of archers, which has a cost of one, will need for you to have resources one). The first X worth of units is free, X being your population level. Don't worry, you'll be able to rise this by getting more food, and that kind of things.

I'll send you a pm with your powers for the first turn.

EDIT: Magic, how could i forget about magic...
Magic is a bit free. Just say what you want to do, and depending on the difficulty, i'll give you a bonus or a penalty to the roll. Starting a fire in a dense forest is easy and is automatic (only by rollind double six you can fail), but rising an army of several thousand men from the dead is difficult and time consuming

Wait who...oh, the ninja.
Yeh, this might be a problem. Two undead kings who rose from humble beginnings to command their own kingdoms, and want to use the power of the tear to bring about a benevolent dictatorship. As is, Xarxas is way too powerful. I see 2 possibilities: one of use changes patrons, or we find a reason to fight each other.

Or...
We could ally with each other.

Nah, I'll change patrons. You posted yours first although I suspect I started typing first--I got interrupted and so I should have the burden of change. I mostly picked Xarxas as fitting slightly better.
