   I play two copies of Black Whirlwind. I then set a card. I summon Blackwing - Kalut the Moonshadow, who in turn brings Gale the Whirlwind and Breeze the Zephyr to my hand. Breeze's effect special summons it, and then because I have other Blackwings on the field, I can special summon Gale the Whirlwind. My soldiers, were they to intend you harm milady, would then deal a total of 3800 damage directly to your person, though in actuality I will not have them harm you. I then synchronize Breeze and Kalut into one of my more direct subordinates, Blackwing Armed Wing  ((Not attacking is just RP, I deal 3800 damage to you with three direct attacks.))  That,   * clears throat *  concludes my turn.

   I start by activating Mystical Space Typhoon on your facedown card. Then, I Normal Summon Blizard the Far North, who's effect revives Kalut the Moonshadow. I also get to add another Breeze the Zephyr to my hand, which special summons itself, and I also add Fane the Steel Chain to my hand. Then, I tune Breeze and Kalut into Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier. Brionac's effect allows me to discard Fane to send one of your frogs back to your hand. Then, I use Gale the Whirlwind's effect to halve your other Dupe Frog's defense score. Now, were I to be an assailant intending you harm, my Armed Wing would attack Dupe Frog for 1800 damage. Then, gale and blizzard would reduce your life points below zero with an additional 2600 damage. That is, provided you have no hidden defenses of which I am not aware?

  OOC: I think I played too conservatively.  I thought the reason you left your only Gale so exposed was because you were hiding a Kalut, so I took a turn to set up a wall instead of destroying it with Mobius.  Nice bluff. 😉
