Is Ghost Riders too powerful ?

IMHO Ghost Riders is mostly usefull for taking relatively empty provinces so they can't be retreated into, typically in concert with a real attack somewhere else.

I have a hard time imagining any army that would take significant damage from the spell, even in the middle game.

I'm also thinking of casting it on yourself and then have a powerful Death Mage to cast Undead Mastery . It probably won't work, though, since the Wraithlords would have good enough magic resistance, plus Undead Mastery is quite expensive and exhausting.

There are easier way to get cheap undeads.
