AND… When Stranglers fight these battles at an angle while entangled and they’re tangled with a Mongo who’s been dangled like a drongo… …they call this a drongo Mongo angry Strangler mangle tangle dangle battle. AND… (thank you for the inspiration, Dr. Seuss!) **New Troop: Bog Strider** [ ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/9/4/942c62e8ee9a52b7816a83fa71c89a906da16d91.png) ](http://gemsofwar.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/blog_bogstrider.png) Unlike the rather silly Marsh Strangler who enjoys children’s poetry, the Bogstrider prefers a nice simple stride through the marshes, where he can look large and menacing in a gentlemanly manner. Please note this Event only applies to the PS4 and XBox One versions of the game.

Good. Finally a green/purple traitstone. Anyway, (maybe) stupid wondering but still no mythical unit for mist of scales and one mythological monster is still missing on this game : Medusa queen (yes maybe lami but she’s not the good old real Medusa who can change people as stone with this eye) . Could be possible to see one day this “lovely” monster as new mythical unit at this kingdom? ---

I still think this Sirrian’s backstory writing stuff should be put in game somehow for the vast majority of players to read. ---

`Pretty in Pink` I like the artwork on the Marsh Strangler with that dainty pink flower sitting pretty in the thorns. Little Shop of Horrors and poetry appreciation. 🐩 Mm-hmm what is it with swamp creatures (like the Vogons) and their incessant attempts at versification. Finally what’s a `drongo` and is it wrongo that they get dangled when entangled? 🙂 ---

Let me guess, Mist of Scales troops and Monsters gets 25% increase of skill right? ---

Ok thanks, it looks like one of the guild guardians will be quite annoying this week due to extra power.
