kill joy!
I won.. okay
and as for the storm:
that is why wind guide was cast!
and the undead horde hit me twice one for 8 and another for 4 (experience!)
had HP of...about 20-25
also storm genrals tried the exact same tactic again... but this time with 13 storm genrals with necklace of vengance?
this worked better as compact troops and a large commander in the middle of them... well I killed a few.. or more!

And that was on turn 20 or so

Just kidding ...

the MIQR has Pale Riders (d3) as 20+3/path; so if the mage had modified death level of 17 (the max), that would yield 62 undead horsemen per casting.

wierd you say that yet I got way more...

Perhaps the additional paths give geometric rather than arithmetic extra horsemen.

Or perhaps Naresh just rounds up some numbers ...

I will sometimes use combat-orientated pretenders in a short game. I stay away from them in normal-sized or longer games, and I am always very careful with them. It is one thing to send them against a group of barbarians; it is quite another to face them off against a human opponent's main army.

and with the amount of magic you can dump on human pretenders its no wonder (boots of callus then cast quickness and spam neifel flames or another mega spell)

I know what you mean, arch mage with 4 lvl 8 paths! and 3 lvl 5 sure, this put a serious hurt in my scales but it was worth it! found some ultra cool magic sites and was getting maybe between 10-30 gems a turn around turn 15!
(roughly conquering 1 province a turn then after turn 8 two a turn)

You know that no magic sites need more than four in a path to find?
