🎜 Scrubbing the Island clean
I'm Spread of Rampant Green
Dahan folk are my bud(dy)s
Invaders get Cleansing Floods 🎝

This was the Tangles aspect (from #NatureIncarnate) for A Spread of Rampant Green. Tangles shifts focus away from regeneration, and more toward rapidly putting Wilds around the place to thwart the Explorers spreading around.

For the coup de grâce, I spent all my remaining Energy to play Cleansing Floods, which eventually did 4 Damage, smashed the final City, causing 2 Fear, ticking the Invaders to Terror Level II.
And off they run, leaving #SpiritIsland never to return. Victory!

Game store delivery^W pick-up day! Ordered in 2023-08, arrived 2024-02.

I saw the store staff retrieve it from a shelf, one of 5 copies of #NatureIncarnate, and was probably one of 6 (there was a _Nature Incarnate_-shaped gap there).

Looks like a lot of local #SpiritIsland fans are about to be happy that this finally got shipped!

The main event of the day was a 3-player #SpiritIsland, with two of us experienced, and one newly learning.

Everyone played a Spirit new to them:

* The new player was Vital Strength of the Earth (from the base game). Plenty of Defending against the Invaders, while letting the rest of us repeat our Powers; also providing Energy that we sorely needed for many of the Events.

* Another player was Grinning Trickster Stirs Up Trouble (from #JaggedEarth). Popping up dangerous Beasts and fomenting Strife among the Invaders, while playing random Power from the top of the deck sometimes!

* I was Relentless Gaze of the Sun (from #NatureIncarnate). wearing down the Invaders with lots of Fear, and bringing back destroyed Presence in a focussed beam of withering sunlight anywhere on the island.
