I should be ashamed of having forgotten the psychological value of doing some sneaky attacks. It might be very, very fun to deal such a blow well behind the lines, especially if it looks as if you did it on purpose (luck might work just as well though). I will be remembering that one.

How would cavalry be helpful as an alone army? Unless you have flying commanders as well (or anything else going at a map speed of 3), they will have to fight on their own, without any kind of support (archers, spellcasters, cheerleaders). Or should they mostly be used thus for diVersion attacks? For example, while the bulk of your army heads for the enemy army, one or two cavalry raiders may be a nice annoyance. Chasing them down will result in spreading forces, and buying PD may still hurt the economy.

Thanks for your patience everyone! Here comes two other small questions that did not seem to bring any result when searching the forum (which either means they haven't been asked before, or more likely, that I do not know how to search my way out of my bed).

6) Mountains, forests and swamps reduce strategic movement speed. However, waste does not seem to have such an effect. So is Waste Survival only useful to lessen the effects of starvation in Wastelands?

7) I gather that C'tis' Miasma effect does not affect neutral units? (Assuming they can suffer from disease and are within your Dominion)

Edit: Duh, that Last one was easy enough to check. If anyone else is interested, Miasma works as well against neutral units, but you should expect quite a few turns before killing off most of the neutral army this way. Still, it might be helpful for a very lazy pretender.
