I imagine a bunch of mammoths would have worked too.

He didnt maximise unit production, he produced astral 9/fire 9 shadow vestals. Mammoths were absolutely useless, and thunderstrikes were hitting infantry and skellies. Iceclads were as useless as ever, too.
I have won that conflict after my God fell, so in a way, you're right. But that's only because I wasnt his first target... I had living clouds, storm and Sea King's court. But were it within the first 20 turns, I would be dead meat, not even a chance.
So I dont see why should there be a spell that kills SC Gods without a chance to counter it somehow. SC Gods are your defense against double-bless rushes (or LA Ermor & Rlyeh, who are powerful enough anyway). VotD is an *overland* 4-lvl spell that makes your SC God obsolete. Where, I daresay, is an overland 4-lvl spell that makes obsolete freespawn hordes and double-blessed sacred troops?
