Time for a poll. (The subject is abuse)

Maybe I am inherently evil. All of this stuff sounds like strategy to me.

Maybe you just use all this stuff yourself against more maneered players, and thus enjoy it.

Moving 3 provinces your movement 1 troops through "move+patrol" bug is "strategy" for you?

Yeah, I've got nothing against AQ and Wrathful Skies.
The retreating mage is a bit tacky, because the spell is supposed to end when he leaves.

Bottom line, you can either kill the AQ or not. If you can, you lose more troops from Wrath, if not you'd lose anyway.
Sure it's harder, but not impossible. You're not going to kill a kitted out AQ with chaff troops anyway and if you're up against an AQ and other high end Air mages your thugs, mages and SC killers better have shock resistance.

MoD is practically impossible to stop once the mage retreats. That's the difference.

Your assumption might be correct except the fact I have never used any of these tactics against the AI or other players.

My apologies, my poll options must be filtered because I did not see that one listed. Looks like a bug to me, and I would think it would be decided by the host/players if there would be repercussions for using it.

It's not in the poll, but it is mentioned in the thread later (as Bogus, or sneaking out of a siege with non-sneaking troops for example) I thought you were talking about the whole thread, not about the poll.

However, if you are only talking about the poll, i have to ask then if editing the 2h file is strategy for you

I can't be bothered to read this entire thread because I wouldn't get a refund for the time lost being your shoulder to cry on

.

As far as your "edit to argue" goes, if you have read the whole thread, you know my position on that.

You didnt need to read the entire thread. The OP mention it in the third post.

I guess that 2 post is enough to have a good point of view of the problem

Imagine that you had mages who'd eventually get AQ. With skies, they just died before they managed to penetrate her MR. And you're not guaranteed to have air indies to forge rings of tamed lightning for everyone, nor to have a trade partned who'll equip your mages.
