Grrmbl. A couple of miscalculations cost me two nice tartarians this turn. I could have won both battles had I judged some appropiate measures necessary.
On the bright side: teleporting a pretender on top of a big high-MR army of mine with the intention of master enslaving them turned out to be quite risky.
How come your army graph didn't show a steep downward turn with your water breathing global gone, AoE? (That abreviation does look really silly when applying to a person, btw.
)
