Of course, you also had plenty of blackhawk leaders to eat mindhunts, so i'm not sure i did any real damage.

Good calculation; aside from my pretender the only commander I had with undead leadership was a lousy ghoul. And you were 3/3 on your mind hunts: Sidhe Lord, Sidhe Champion and Black Hawk.

At game's end I had 10 scouts, all concentrated in Agartha's and Mictlan's provinces. I had more at one point but lost some to patrollers. My guess is that I recruited more scouts than anyone since I had plenty of turns with two forts free but not much gold. I actually had a scrying site but my pretender had better things to do and I had no other S mages that could use it.
