I would have put the ISP vs Ledaal Xeno battle here (I was playing ISP) but I see Clebo has already done so here: CombatScroll

Thoughts on the combat

It was never finished, though I'd predict there was about a 75% chance of Ledaal winning slowly over the next 40 or so turns.

Ironically Ledaal's Hurricane Combat Method did more damage to himself than it did to ISP. The real killers were Weapon-Breaking Defense Technique (because ISP would lose access to Fivefold Bulwark Stance with her last weapon), and Arrow-Consuming Flame Defense (because it prevented ISP from making unarmed flurry attacks).

I couldn't expect to kill Ledaal before he'd recovered enough motes and Willpower to break both of ISP's remaining weapons. The only viable tactic I saw left was to keep stunting defenses until ISP had enough motes to either (1) use her mega combo again (which had a significant- though not good- chance of hitting), (2) use Increasing Strength Exercise and Dragon Coil Technique (which might have worked, since ISP had more health levels remaining). Both of these options would have taken an inordinate amount of time.

It's over a year late but you can consider this my official forfeit of the match!
