I will preface this with I know Lizards are widely regarded as perhaps the worst faction in the game. My group is fairly new to root, we usually play at a table of 5 and have played 7 games total in the last 3 days with the Riverfolk expansion.
As Otters I will set the prices at 3-4 for cards, always at 4 for mercs, and 2-4 for boats. My lizard friend buys from me and avoids me like the plague. This makes me have a hard time hunting him down and policing him. Even when I do try and police him I feel like I am only making him stronger by giving him more acolytes and losing my own units in the process, which he will then just use to sanctify other peoples buildings.
I tried to hammer down on everyone else and almost just entirely ignore him and kind of eliminated the VB and Marquise in my last game, destroying about 8 buildings in the process. With a couple aids from the VB (he was allied by the end) he still swept. Any thoughts? I’m not really an Otters player, i tend to like Woodland Alliance more
