I have 4 priests, including my prophet, now in Ashikaga, plus I have at least a +2 dominion strength advantage over them. It'll be a close call whether I can breach the citadel's 350-point walls before I preach the god out of existence. But the point of my priests in this siege is mainly to weaken (if not outright kill the enemy nataraja pretender) so that my inevitable storming comes off with fewer casualties. I'd be tickled if I can carry the fort without another battle, but it's not what I have planned for.

BTW, I'd like to once again thank Arralen for his fine suggestion that I give Sceptres of Authority to my priests. In the battle outside Ashikaga, my 3 priests with the sceptres fired volley after volley nonstop throughout the entire battle and did score a fair number of kills on the enemy. Making the sceptres was well worth the investment! I'll be making more of them as my fire gem income permits.
