I totally agree on the painting, I am working hard on that. Believe me
As far as the casting and spending all those points, trust me I was miffed. Here was my thought process; I went big early to try and highlight a channelled spell for the video, and my troll chieftain was within 6" so I planned on charging the chief and the witch king in on the dweller. That would finish off his only fight 7 model on the table, and leave the chieftain free to slay those cave trolls on his own with little issue. That would allow my withc king to fly to the other side of the field to help with my weaker flank. I just threw garbage!! then I chased it with a second might. to quote Carter Birk from Aliens," It was a bad call Ripley, a bad call..."
