The main tactic of my deck is to get to Azami as fast as possible and then slowly bury my opponents in card advantage until I can find a way to win, either by taking multiple turns, locking my opponents out, or amassing a huge token army. I have a mono-blue Wizards deck piloted by Azami, Lady of Scrolls.

A friend in my playgroup has a Nekusar, the Mindrazer deck full of all standard nastiness (translated to Wheel effects) that you could expect. Do not force tactics in a game that obviously has technology that outpaces those tactics. While I do have a deck list for today that incorporates some strategy from this battle, there is another strategic lesson I want to talk about that we should incorporate into our games.

If you want to learn more about the Battle of the Somme, I suggest this Documentary Drama: Originally called the “Great Push Forward,” it was renamed by British troops to “The Great F*** Up.” Still, it is considered an Allied victory. One of the biggest impacts that WWI and the Battle of the Somme had was the massive number of casualties it inflicted upon the world, with countries losing 10%-20% of their male population. They had suffered casualties at almost 2 to 1 over the Germans and had achieved none of their operational objectives, neither retaking the areas of Peronne or Bapaume and ultimately failing to push the Germans out of France by the winter. Once it was over, the Allied forces had gained a total of 6 miles. What they got instead was a full German line with intact machine guns waiting.įor 140 days, this battle raged on. Once the shelling stopped, the Allied forces mobilized and began what was supposed to be a leisurely walk to the next trench. The Germans simply waited underground while their trenches were being demolished. What the allies didn’t expect was that the German trenches contained deep underground bunkers that were unaffected by the surface shelling. Once the German trenches were thoroughly decimated, the allies would simply walk over and set up a new front line in the old trenches of their enemies. The Allies hammered the German trenches with artillery for days. With mortars being arched, you could fire into the trenches and devastate an enemy position. The plan was to use a new method of artillery fire which involved arching your shots instead of the old method used with cannons that fired artillery directly into your enemies. The battle of the Somme was an attempt by the Allied Powers to push Germany back and begin to take the offensive. In order to evade the hailstorm of bullets, armies dug down and the attrition of Trench Warfare began. Barbed wire proved to be a large roadblock to forces trying to advance and automatic machine guns were able to mow soldiers down at rates that no one had thought imaginable. Technological advances in the 1900s made this tactic impossible. Old warfare meant advancing an army of troops into the opposing army, while firearms existed, including more accurate rifles and handguns, the general strategy was still to converge on the enemy and engage in close quarters combat. The biggest takeaway, in my opinion, of any quick look at WWI is that it had 20th-century technology but used 19th-century tactics. Germany’s advance was halted relatively quickly inside France and the true Great War finally began. Germany invaded France via Belgium (who wouldn’t allow German armies to pass through their country) which prompted Great Britain to enter the war. Its plan was to take France out as fast as possible before the massive country of Russia had time to mobilize an army and then pivot to face the potentially larger foe. Germany entered the war on the side of Austria-Hungary (Central Powers) and quickly realized that it would have to fight a war on two fronts between France and Russia. Started by the assassination of Archduke and heir to the throne of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, Franz Ferdinand, the conflict quickly encompassed the whole globe due to called in treaties and the mobilization of colonies. World War I, or the Great War, or the War to End All Wars (take your pick) was the largest war in history at the time. The Battle of the Somme in World War I is one of the deadliest battles in world history and represents a change in how warfare was conducted. Today we’ve got a challenge of a battle to cover, and we’ll then tackle Zagras EDH.
