Four Phases of War

In the FUPA flag room Victory walks the warlords through the four combat phases and the brutal Ramp-Up rules (no offensive or teleport magic, kilometer-wide “gates,” forced hand-to-hand fighting) while roughly 100,000 enemy mercenaries mass on the Operatic border and the Dream set up artillery. Carl discovers his suppressed notifications: Shi Maria has been frantically trying to seize his body, driving his Mind Balance to level nine, as Louis, Katia, Samantha, and little Bonnie arrive.
