well ... the major fault was mine... so out of practice, I wasn't considering massed magic duel. the tactic was good; the propaganda behind it all is what i don't like.

Its still been a fun game - ME ermor of course is new to me. great initial expansion, but very restricted in diversity and terrible research (since your mages are needed to lead your armies and summon your troops).
