Trading commanders, exploit or not?

[Jarkko]

I fail to see the problem of sending in chaff armies to slow down hostile armies. If you scripted commanders to burn hundreds of gems, then maybe the scripting wasn't that well thought out? I mean, it is not like only your opponent can do the Ghost riders attack, or? Do unto thy opponent what they do to you.

Harassing attacks, even suicide harassing attacks, have been the norm through out the history of warfare. If the harrassers can destroy a supply-wagon or blow up a fuel dump or whatever, would that too be an exploit? "Forcing" (ie if the opponent so has wished to equip and script his commanders) an opponent to burn lots of gems are in my opinion the closest thing in Dom to harassing attacks used in real life.
