You guys are assuming a lot. Can you point me to the MP thread where someone with MP experience has complained because an enemy is spamming VoTD against him?

An opponent's SC has to make it into the hall of fame to be a realistic target. Then a nation that actually has the paths to cast the spell has to find the SC and cast at that province. Then the nation that casts the spell has to hang tight with the SC, following him around the map to know where he is, to cast the spell again and again. This is really only feasible if the SC is in the casters provinces, because one misstep by the spotter scout and the SC is safe.

The spell is not stupid, the spell has never been an issue in any of my MP games. If it needs any tweaking, it needs to be fixed where when an Immortal dies to it while targeted in his own dominion, he goes back to his capital. As it stands now, it seems the combat takes place in a neutral zone, causing immortals to die. There does not need to be counters to the spell that nullify it or completely protect an SC. I should add, if the SC has any amount of magic resistance, the spell fails frequently.

If you guys do succeed in your quest to nerf fun and unique spells in this game such as Vengeance of the Dead, what is to stop the same player from spamming Horror Mark on your precious SC? Maybe we should nerf that too seeing how it is equally a death sentence, and even worse for a pretender. Maybe after that, you guys can petition to get rid of "Curse" or have it made curable. I mean, it is not fair that you created that supercombatant pretender just to have some indy shaman curse it forever. Hopefully by the time your done, all we will have is generic fantasy game spells like magic missile and fireball.

I guess in short what I am telling you is:

"Cry more noob."
