I did it. It made for a really cool "Spell Caster" run. You can get the book set up with a bunch of Beacons by the second season, and then it becomes a game of trying to get a bunch of magic and engineering dice. It's interesting because I realized early on that I needed Lightning to handle air units, which was an interesting wrinkle in my plan. Very interesting build.
Thanks again. A very enjoyable experience.
