It'll be great if we someday catch a bird of prey...

I figure we leave the wolves for now. Split up into how many small_flyers would be efficient and then fly away towards the tower.

How many wolves are there?

Also, I imagine that divebombing would have a good chance of working on them too, have a few main fliers, then split off size 10 divebombers from the main fliers and attack the wolves

We could try waiting for them to be distracted with the meat and forget about us, then missile into the back of their necks from above. All at the same time. Four flyers shouldn't be that difficult.

We should split into 5 flyers, 4 for divebombing, and 1 that contains the vast majority of our crystals so that even if we lose we only lose like 40/80 crystals.

Well, yeah. Our mass right now split between 4 flyers would probably be way too much for an effective projectile. As an added note, if we are successful in our attack and they are disabled, we should have the rest shoot down and further injure the wolves to prevent any chance of resistance.

The Cryswarm, noticing that the wolves are indeed organic, split off a squad of 1 major crystal and 20 others to divebomb the one wolf still glaring at them as a test, predicting success due to the weight.
(1) The wolf's catches and bite-crushes the major crystal and the neighboring ones, shattering the focus of the group and sending the remaining ones flying into the dirt next to the bull. They quickly reform into a quad walker and retreat back to the swarm with it's high jump.

-4 crystals, 1 major crystal. The other wolves are still eating.

When I play an RPG, I always get terrible rolls for initiative. Every. Darn. Time. I make up for it when I roll a twenty every single major battle.

You sound like every person I've played D&D Encounters with, minus the always 20s.

There's one member of our group (a monk) who always gets about 16-18 every time as his base and gets like, +20 to initiative. We're all like, stop with all the initiative feats! >:(

Hide pairs of crystals in the bull, so that we can kill them from inside (depending on our size.)

Separate one colony of 54 crystals and send them off to experiment by applying concentrated mana to various materials.

Could we have a listing of the requirements of each form?

Separate into as many walker-quad forms as possible and initiate a mass of attacks, with half the available quads jump-attacking an individual until it is disabled and the remainder jump-attacking the other organics to keep them from interfering. Try to avoid that opening that crushed the flier, that was bad.
