I think you should take heart. While gods and other supercombatants are extremely good at busting independents, the game isn't really about fighting the independents. Once you get later in the game and start fighting the other players, who have powerful summons and/or magic in battle, the lone supercombatant stops working quite so well. You still use them, obviously, but only as a component of your overall strategy.

Removing recuperation from immortality would just nerf all the other immortals. But since the VQ has built in regeneration it would hardly hurt her at all.

yep totally true .
sc pretenders excel at indy killing but later in the game they are only a part of your strat .
dominions is very different from heros of might and magic because you have so many options .
and in homm a hero only dies when all his troops are wiped out while a pretender god can be killed or get afflictions

indies 9 are tough i had to fight 90 barbarians Last turn they got through my mistform + mirror image the suckers hehe *G
i had 10 hp left then they routed so i almost lost my pretender against them but was lucky
