A cheaper way might be to 'buy' priestesses directly from the Arco player, if you have a common border.

Variant: pick up a lycos amulet with your battlemage pretender as you conquer your first independent province (can't cast battle spells anymore)

Variant: pick up a Knife of the Damned with your melee pretender (and start collection afflictions).

Variant: pick up a lycos ammy with your demigod-sized pretender (and morph into a wimpy werewolf).

Bottom line: a few independent leaders types sometimes wear cursed items, learn who they are, and avoid meeting them if you still have free weapon or misc slots.

Shame on the Arco Pretender that sells his babes!

I always disliked this particular use of the domination spells for trading (regarding nation specific commanders, that is), because of the dilution of the differences between nations.

This however I have no problem with. Of course, retaliation is to be expected in this instance from the pissed neighbour.
