				 Re: New Player Question --How am I Getting Flanked? 
 
	Personally, I think it's more likely it was astral travel. From what I've seen, the AI usualy doesn't make much use of deep-striking flying armies or sneaking armies.Quote:

 On the other hand, I've never seen them use Astral Travel either, but it is Pythium, who has far easier access to high-level astral magic than they do sneakers or fliers, so that seems most likely.
 
 
 
	A bought province defense of 10 or higher has some chance of detecting sneakers, but I think patrolling armies are much better at it.Quote:
