I've read about the Staff of Storms, but since i'm new to MP, Ulm was the first one to use it on me. I nailed a Wraith Lord (who'm I'm assuming was supposed to Last long enough so that wrathful skies killed all/most of my army), but I still lost some valuable commanders. Next time, they'll be lightning immune.
It was not a wraith lord, just a bane lord... I could not possibly afford a wraith lord at this point!! I was hoping he would Last longer, but oh well he did the job to some degree.

I really dislike the "one commander kills any army with wrathful skies/staff of storms" thing. That was actually discouraging.
Yes indeed it is discouraging! But when you are on a tight budget, like I am, you have to seek out the most efficient methods of inflciting death and mayhem.

Actually I have been a total failure in that regard. My wrathful attacks surely do kill a fair number of enemies, but unfortunately it has cost me a fully equipped commander each time. A rather well decked out golem (as you can see in the bug report thread), 2 bane lords with good equipment, and most recently, one of my wrathers... that is NOT cheap equipment!

I am thinking between those massive equipment & summons losses (probably 200 gems worth) and my mishandling of my longdead archers, and the destruction of my Ulmish national army, I figure I have, at best, broken even.
