Yes, Imprint Souls. If you are using Jotunheim. They have excellent provincial defense. I'm surprised he got through it, unless you arn't using it

That tactic works well against un-defended areas, or nations whose natural militia are weak. As Jotun your defenders kick tail.

Go to one of your provinces and click the "defence" in the upper left display. Add 6 to each province (other nations need to add something like 11)

Ick! I think you're right. Thanks for the prompt reply!

The AI must be converting almost all its gems to get the 50-75 astral it needs to keep doing this to me every turn. As soon as I finish crushing Caelum (I just killed their pretender and I need a few more turns to rebuild my flying troops so I can complete the capture of their citadel) I'll be able to spare my pretender to deal with them as they so very much deserve ...

The provinces he's munching on have 20 defense! All my provinces have at least that.

Hrm. I've never had an Imprint Souls munch 20 giants before. I wonder if those flags have a mondo bless effect.

The best way to stop an AI from casting on alot of undefended provinces is to go siege his capital. He'll throw everything he has for the most part at trying to free that.
