Default Re: Help needed for challenge game

Ok, my first stab at a pretender:

Great Enchantress
F4A2W4E4S4D1N4B4
Order 1
Sloth 3
Cold 1
Death 3
Luck 0
Magic 3
Dominion 5
Watch Tower

The idea here is that the troops are fairly crappy so we don't bother with them, so we can take Sloth 3 and get Magic 3 instead (we'll still have enough resources to build up the heavy infantry we need). We're going to focus on spells, hence a pretender that's suited to site searching. She also gives the Celestial Soldiers lots of nice blessings.

We crank out the 1W2H priests and get them researching, then use them for banishing when necessary.

Any thoughts? Indies are at 9 so maybe initial expansion will be hampered? Anyone think an SC pretender would be better?
