Unethical??? Who's running the game, Stormbinder?

*sigh* Yes, I am running the game and I am that terrible SC/raiding nation in question.
Zapmeister's description of the situation is true and accurate.
I am extremely tempted to add my own bit of advice regarding how to deal with me to what was already mentioned here, but I understand that it would be like shooting myself in the leg.
I promise Zap I'll tell you what I would try to do in your place, but it'll have to be until after the game. I did send few small bits of advice to you in PMs over the Last several days.
As for my own nation - I only have 1 real army though which I put together 1 turn ago. And I only have 2 SCs (AQs), in addition to vans, who are good raiders but not up to par agaisnt real SC. I do have one kickass AQ prophet though, who is real ***** to kill.
As Zapmesiter said, the problem is that if huge Machaka Empire would go AI at this point (turn 47) I could overun most of it in 1 turn, with my raiders, summons and teleporting SCs. And I would hate to win the game in this way. I imagine all other players would not like as well.
Meanwhile I can only say that I agree with what was saod by Archae, Graeme and Cain(gasp!
), both in tactical and global points of view.
In Zapmeister's defense I can say that it must be very frustrating for him to play against such raiding tactic, when enemy strike and retreat into shadow. And he also correct, I am not sure myself how my AQ have survived this Last turn big battle, after she was the only one commander left in the castle. I have few theories why it would happen, most likely this was due to that battle being castle defense. Or it could be a bug indeed. I even posted about it myself earlier today (look at the pinned Dom2's FAQ on the top of the first page, I've added some corrections to it today, routing mechanism is one of them).
And btw I also lost my banelord to you due to routing wierdness Last turn (he was scripted to hold 5 turns, since I was expecting your Ghost riders attack, and he was supposed to retreat once you kill the regular troops, which he didn't
). Although to be honest banelord and that AQ SC are not in the same wieght Category of course.
