Regarding the second point, it is indeed possible my opponent has a scout with supply items, but unlikely, considering his nation of origin.

Probably more likely than you think. With a pretender with just a couple of points of nature magic--or the found tribal shamans, where nature abounds--supply items would be easy to forge for the force you describe.

Even assuming he needed to empower someone, if his national mages don't have nature, there is not much else to spend any nature gems on. So if he stumbled across a level 0 nature producing site early on, he might have had lots of nauture gems to burn by the time he attacked.

Now, if it's only turn 5, this doesn't explain things.

Also, your opponent could have traded for supply items.
