Also I am not alltogether clear on why, as someone suggested, a retreat in VotD would represent awakening from the dream, it might as well be called death from fear, or the soul losing itself in the land of dreams, or any other pat explanation you happen to like.

Is this an official point of view from developers? I mean, the spell is working as it is supposed to work (attackers do not rout at turn 50, and defender die in turn 75)?
I'm asking becouse that might be an easy and clean solution for me. If that is *how* the spell is supposed to work, i have exactly ZERO problems with it. I might find it a spell too good for it research cost, but i also find thunderstrike too god for it research cost, and wont ban it from my game. My grief is that, as i understand it, the attacker not disolving in turn 50 was unintended.
So if VotD is offically working as intended, my problem with it vanishes.

Well it is working as intended, it is not bugged.. Perhaps it would be desirable that the dead where the attackers. Or that the dead not count as kills or what have you. But those things are not trivial to accomplish. There has been debate abnout this spell since dom 1 days. And JK has resisted all attempts to convince him to change it in either of those ways.
