You are either correct about Ermor or I just don't know what I'm doing. The answer is actually both

I still am not satisfied with my pretender. Isn't that just terrible? I must have changed it half a dozen times. And I want to change him again... I should have used a Wyrm.

I often feel the same way. It doesn't help that one of my friends is a veteran dom3 player always willing to tell me that my pretender design sucks. The one I am currently using... sucks. Also I clearly have no idea about certain MA independents, having never ever played MA -- hence you may have noticed the dip in my army size a couple of turns ago.

MA C'tis is also.... weird. I think the miasma does more harm to me than to anyone else. Not being able to recruit independents is rather painful, even if apparently *all* the independents I could recruit are currently stupid nature mages I can already do better than.

Also, sorry for being an obnoxious stickler, but since we're in turn 7 already can we really change the thread status to 'in progress' rather than 'uploading pretenders'?

name_thief, you don't have private messaging enabled, so I have no other means to reach you. (you should in the future)

Suffice to say that if you don't want your pretender cursed and horror-marked you should withdraw him from my territory at once. Trust me, C'tis has excellent ways of dealing with SC pretenders.

Well, I just kicked Shinuyama's pretender back across the bridge after he strolled in and took one of my provinces. Does that count?

wish i'd had a scout there to gather all that delicious intelligence...
