Anybody in a position to test this?
Both are "spell attacks" on a province so the answer might involve the order of the nations, or maybe the game-age of the mages. So testing might have to be done with different nations.

Whats needed to test it. If I add to the Aran.map something like
#specstart 6 111 (arcos)
#startspell 6 "Angelic Host"

#specstart 10 123 (pangaea)
#god 10 "Vampire Queen"
#dominionstr 10 10
#startspell 10 "Wizards Tower"

WOuld that be enough to test it? Id probably have to give Arcos a god with clams or an extra site that generates pearles
