I noticed while charging around The Neck that whenever I fought foliums they would never hit me. At all. So I decided to test what was going on by sticking a level 1 wolf in there. At the end of turn 17, I was told that I'd lost- but not a single hit landed on my woof.
If you look at the damage thing, you can see that my wolf was the only one doing any damage, but still I lost
I dunno if this is purposeful but I seem to remember having difficulty with foliums as a low level in the past, so this is... a lil odd.
