the moment after I clicked the button to make my move, I realized I'd made an error

3 possible moves -- shadow takes d4:4, shadow takes SXd4:3, or skill attack taking SXd4:3

one is obviously wrong, but another one is almost as obviously wrong -- but it wasn't almost as obviously wrong enough for me, alas.

I think I need to take the d6 shadow, but with which die? all 3 have their merits...
