But we settled on The Scepter of Zavandor.  Even though I wasn&#8217;t the Druid, I still decided to pursue the Ruby path.  I did pretty good at the start.  I was the first to get four Sapphires.  I then slowly worked my way up the Ruby track and started buying Rubies.  My only problem in this game was the artifacts which destroy gems.  I bought one Magic Mirror and survived the two others.  So far, so good.  I knew Shadow Cloaks were coming soon, but I wasn&#8217;t able to increase my gem storage in time.  I messed up by not buying a Magic Wand and sacrificial Opals.  So the three Cloaks ate into my Sapphires.  I was able to buy two sentinels: the Salamander and the Raven.  And that got me third place.  First and Second places were only points ahead of me.  And if I were to have bought that wand and Opals, I think I could have won the game easily.  Sigh.  Still a fun game though&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Scepter of Zavandor I&#8217;ve been wanting to play Outpost for a while now.
