Vengeance of the dead, what the hell

Thanks for the info, Saint Dude. I did not know that.

Obviously, the battlefield enchs. were not really proposed as a counter to VOTD, just as a way to kill 1200+ undead.
I was responding to the OP, who stated that VOTD was uncounterable, which it is not. As many of you correctly point out, these 'counters' are impractical in that they deprive your SC of the ability to act in an SC role, effectively neutralising it. This is, I think, true of several other remote assassination spells.

It is possible that VOTD is unbalancing, but it seems unlikely, given the rare occasions where it is useful. The bell of cleansing would be pretty imbalanced if it targeted non-demons too (maybe...actually, probably not).

I also vote #3

This spell is fine except for an obvious bug that causes the defender to lose a turn limit stlaemate. Defender should win that. Submit to bug list and see what devs say.

So, if we agree upon #3 (I sure do), who's going to submit it to bug list? I dont know how it's done.

I've done it!

On this whole doubling the horde of undead after each successful casting of VotD - should undead kills count for this spell in the first place ?

The spell isn't Vengeance of the Undead. Do mindless zombies have souls which need to be avenged ? I don't think so.
