I have had abysmal success killing VQs with Earth Attack. My record is 0 kills for 20+ attempts. I've never seen so many experience stars on a Pretender before....

After checking the manual I will concede that Ghost Riders are pretty damn disgusting. 5 death gems gets you 33 longdead horseman and a FREAKING WRAITH LORD??? Who cares that they're not under your control. For 30 death gems you can have 198 horsemen and 6 wraith lords running amuck in some schmuck's home province.

That VQ sounds pretty terrifying. What's soul vortex?

RP is rainbow pretender. As Gandalf said, they work great on huge maps.

Soul vortex is alteration 6 . Needs death 3 to cast . It is a drain life damage shield . Works very well with Wraith lords too .

Because VQ is etheral trample hits only in 1/4 th of the cases or in 1/8 if the VQ has luck too . VQ has regeneration and not too bad DEF so no wonder that you had no success with earth attack .


With ghost riders it is 2 edged . If the defender has a castle and nobody on patrolling then you only wipe out his PD , the ghost riders disappear and the province converts back to his owner .
Ghost riders is an excellent spell to kill single SCs or smaller armies which attack you . Ghost riders is a reason why you should castle important provinces .
