Default Re: The Vale of Infinite Horror

Ive tried to make some use of sites like this (I try to make use of anything in the game which Im told is a major flaw of mine).

What I do is try to leave such a province as the temptation to my area. I super-defend the one behind it. And do things like build a temple in the province with the site, leave it lightly PD'd, etc. That way, I can gain a slight benefit by convincing an invading army to take it, and then stop there for abit waiting for reinforcements.

Its not a great tactic but it was the only one I could come up with. Sites which cause disease work also. Or any province which is likely to cause starvation of a sizeable army.
