Default Re: what Ctis did wrong

Ctis had never planned to invade Vanheim. In fact, he didn't even count on surviving until the end of the war. But he *had* planned to survive a lot longer than he did. If I hadn't made several blunders and thrown away valuable assassins and Poison Slingers, then I might have defeated the first wave of Vanheim (since Vanheim didn't choose to allocate powerful troops to bodyguard duty, except for two Fey Boars, both of which were dead by the end).

My questions for Vanheim are: 1. Were you earning substantial income from the formerly-Ctissian provinces before you banished Bwoony, or did the Miasma successfully suppress your income from those provinces? It was Bwoony's strategy to soak up both your time and your money (where diseasing your magical super cavalry counts as soaking up both). 2. Were you earning substantial income from the formerly-Ctissian provinces after banishing Bwoony? I would guess so. 3. Was this added income, in your opinion, necessary for your successful team attack on Caelum?

Any other general pointers?
