In the games I have played against human and computer opponents this spell seems to be the one of the strongest per cost. For only 5 death gems a large army of longdead horsemen with a powerful wraith lord.

I know for the single player games this spell is KEY for toasting 98% of any enemy armies.

The other key factor is no other spell even comes close to the amount of damage this spell can do to an army based on the cost.


My advice... either increase the cost of the spell or remove some of the longdead riders which appear.

As Pocus said, it's a Level 9 spell.

Also, the Wraith Lord doesn't do you much good since it is not under your control. I haven't used the spell often but judging my experience with the combat AI, he would probably just rout and disappear once the undead riders are banished. And even if the riders successfully beat the local defense, I think it'll only turn the province neutral. A nuaisance but not much more. There are worse things that can be done to your province with such high level spells.

Pale Rider is a lower level spell which can give you similar undead riders. And to me, a more practical spell.
