Moving Immobile Pretenders

If you can teleport an immobile Pretender, you can always ferry troops to him/her/it via another mages, especially if you equip them with leadership-boosting items.

That sort of defeats the point, since now your troops are, effectively, being led by other mages.

Since the immobile cannot move anyway, any units in the province will be led into battle either when your fortress is stormed, or in conjunction with a $1 investment in a single point of PD to cause all garrisoned troops to fight.

The only drawback being that they'll start in the standard issue dogpile with no orders, since you can't organize them into squads....but you can get around that simply by organizing the IMPORTANT troops into squads, and leaving the rest in the dogpile.

Leadership value of immobiles, as such, is mostly irrelevant now. I hope the Sphinx got a LOT cheaper to compensate for its new total and complete immobility, since it's now even less useful than the originally cheaper immobiles.
