I'd like to recognise the fact that my fighter won every battle that lasted beyond the first turn. How did he have that much astral?

Funs fights, thanks for organization.

The masterlich AI was terribly clever against me : chain casting ghost grip, so even with his reinvigoration set my Dagon was exhausted fast.

That was great, but doesn't having all the nations each at different levels of research impact the battles for casters who last longer than round5? Like Calmon having disintegrate researched, but not raise skeletons & Rytek having raise skeletons & ghost grip, but not disintegrate? Both my battles were over before round 6 so it didn't impact me and most battles were decided before that time anyways so maybe it's not a big deal.

In Arena battle 3 it shows me winning... yet my SC never fights again. Why ?

If we were allowed 3 magic levels then why does the SC named 'spamming fetish' start with an extra 6 air as the default unit only starts with 2 earth?

That's strange. If you choose NTJedi as your nation, then the battle results message reports that the both SCs died (but of course in the replay itself NTJedi's SC stays alive)
EDIT: guess: Maybe the game was hosted on a different Dom3 version than 3.10?

Fetish is a machaka pretender, and pretenders got the normal 3 empowerements and in addition + 3 magic levels.

I thought this was a bad rule. I don't see why pretenders should get extra magic paths.

@Jazzepi : Because they usually have design points ?

(it's more normal than the famous tartarians with chosen randoms - = an hundred of gift of reasoned summons to get the exact monster)

edit : "logic" as nothing to do with it

I completely agree! Pretenders should not recieve +6 while other units only are allowed +3.
SC vs SC should be fighting with equal bonuses.

This arena match was bugged and invalid anyways since my SC battle result was different than the actual battle.
