Saarud, don't make me smack you! You are not a sucky player, and you didn't ruin the game by any means. I hope you learned that national troops, while good for expanding and the mid-game, are ineffective against a late-game SC. Potatoman already pointed out alot of the things one can do to counter SCs. Also, against large undead armies, astral, fire, and death magic are all useful. Very few, if any, undead are immune to fire, and fire has quite a few spells that damage a large area. Astral has a number of spells that do increased damage to undead. Death has access to dust to dust, a high damage, unresistable spell, and it's bigger, badder brother, wither bones.

Oh, and don't be discouraged about what happened at the capital. Kailasa gave me a good whoopin' after our big battle, as you probably saw. Oh course that was because I was out of gems. Also, I brought the hammer down on you really hard in our battle. Who would have thought that undead mastery, master enslave, antimagic, and will of the fates would be such a great combination.
