I like that story PVK, I tend to play Mictian pretty much solely and although I have won well, no games at all since I started playing, I just cant resist the Blood Fountain.
In fact as an aside, following advice on here about jacking up my Inde str I am pretty much walking over a game currently. So thumbs up, Gandalf I think it was that gave it.
Anyway, problem with saving them with regen rings (which was my instant thought) was the fact that the main 3 generals all had lifelong protection and eyes of aiming, hence I had no slots to put a ring in and I didnt have any other items available to build that gave regen.
I do love Mictipocti though. I played mainly on Orania and Im always on a mission to land him on Skull Island..hehe.
Quick question how DO you get unholy priests other than via national troops like ernor or heros like Micti.
