Taking sea provinces #2

[Saxon]

Argitoth,

Welcome back from your year away.

What were you using to fight? You old favorite C'tis? What pretender did you have?

Just as he had lots of time to brew an army, so did you. Sounds like you chased him off land, then let him rest. What did you do with the time? If it was MP, were you fighting someone else? Diplomancy is often the best way to deal with another nation.

IIRC, sea trolls have poor protection. Did you have any good offensive troops to take advantage of that or were you working with high protection troops that outlast the enemy?

Based on the spells you describe, you were focused on direct damage spells, rather than buffing your troops or reducing the stats of his. You might want to explore those spells more to get more milage out of your troops. Throwing wind guide and flaming arrows on the extra archers you recruit will give you some nice results.
