RULES CORRECTIONS:
- Krakenlance is a local unit so should have been dealing 3 damage when throwing the trident, and not 2.
- In Pluto's Refugees, the beasts consider local units as "not opposing" (not in the rules, but confirmed by CTG), so in all of those games, the beasts should have been ignoring the local units. I was playing it that they were still "opposing" and would therefore stop moving when they got next to them.
- Also, rivals never place a tactic on a beast - that was in the Arena rules and I missed it.
- Leadership rating includes your Hero. I did correct this much later on.

About Hoplomachus: Victorum, from BoardGameGeek:
The year is AD 79. Seers have learned of the imminent eruption of Mount Vesuvius, and those versed in the mystic arts have made invocations to stop the calamity from claiming thousands of lives. However, these actions have angered Pluto, god of the underworld, who vows to usher in even greater destruction unless the earth's strongest champions accomplish a series of tasks in a realm of grueling combat.
Hoplomachus: Victorum is a standalone title from Chip Theory Games. It uses CTG's acclaimed combat system from the Hoplomachus games, adding new twists with a focus on heroes and campaign play. Victorum is a solo-only experience, offering an in-depth, rewarding adventure with deep strategic decisions and exciting combat. Set in the more epic and mythical world of Hoplomachus: Victorum, this edition will pair the combat mechanisms fans know and love with beautiful updated lore, art and design.
