Re: Send Horror and Scouts
Some of my scouts stayed in their province and changed orders to 'Attack'. Some of the scouts moved into a neighboring province. There didn't seem to be any difference between trying these two approaches.
Of the few scouts that survived, the weird thing is that the "We have now taken control" messages appear alongside "normal movement" battle messages. But the scouts that died all had "there was a battle" messages in the magic phase, immediately prior to a "there was a battle" for the lesser horror.
Hmmm...
failure: Scouts that did "Attack" current province
failure:
Had a scout in hiding province #55, with orders to move into #40.
Had a scout in hiding province #62, with orders to move into #55.
Cast Send Lesser Horror on 40, 55. Result:
1st battle, magic battle phase: Scout moving from #55 to #40 attacks #55! Weird.
2st battle, magic battle phase: Horror attacks and takes #55.
3st battle, magic battle phase: Horror attacks and takes #40.
4th non-battle, mvmt battle phase: Scout from #62 takes empty province #55.
failure: cast send lessor horror on province I took with call of winds. :P
It looks like:
- If you cast Send Lesser Horror on a province where there is a scout hiding, and the scout has new orders to "Attack", the scout can fight the PD first.
- If you cast Send Lesser Horror on a province where there is a scout hiding, and the scout has new orders to "Move" to a different province, the scout does not move but instead fights the local PD, before the horror.
It looks safe to:
- Move a hidden scout from province A to attack province B, so long as you don't also cast Send Lesser Horror at province A.
Maybe.

He took at least 8, maybe 10 provinces from me with Horror+Scout in Timewarp game, and I don't recall seeing any erroneous attacks by his scouts. As far as I could tell, he had 100% success rate.
