I've been playing around with sucubae lately (sadly, not the fun way.)
Mind if I ask what the "fun" way is? Is it "bang 'em and then kill 'em"?

Umh, isnt Lifelong-Protection dangerous together with an assassin? Imps die quickly, causing the succubus to rout to death, dont they?

Ive had LL protection work well with assassins. And the amulet that summons skeletons also. They seem to keep a wave of hassles going at the enemy commander while the assassin does their thing.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the assassin isnt supposed to be able to lead anything in most cases.

do 2 LLP stack to 4 imps / battle round ?

in one of my Last pbem games tinktank inflicted great pain on me using assasins as abysia with your mentioned combo gandalf + a copper plate .

even 1 vanjarl with 5 skinshifters as guards lost grmml .
this was turn 15 or so i hadn't researched false horrors yet the only spell which might have saved my vanheim mages

In contrast to the Moloch imps, which are summoned once and them done, LLP summons some imps each round, which might make a difference with routing.

Also, I thought there was no routing in assassinations?

Oh, is this true? I only thought there is no successful routing in assassinations (i.e. routing always means death).
