The 3 prophets (in MP) - once I managed to enslave 2 enemy prophets (including Etimnu the Wraith Lord, yay! - the other was a Seraphine), I cast Gift of Reason on them later and had them work against their former masters.

Now this is cool!

First meeting with Bogus (in SP) - you never forget this. I had a 30-40 knights and 200+ longbows nearby when the troll adventurers gave me a visit, and Bogus ate them all without getting a scratch. Awed and shocked I was.

I had some mileage fighting Bogus casting sleep - threw him over 100 fatigue and suddenly he was gone.

New fresh recruits, ...er, not so fresh - the first time ever I used Master Enslave, and it was in MP. For good measure I even had it cast by 3 different mages (!). At the receiving end was a ~300 army of Ulm, with gobs of Guardians and some BK. Most of them switched sides. But what I hadn't foreseen was the huge supply demand for my now vastly increased army, and I lost most of these excellent troops to disease (while besieging a nearby fortress).

all these little things you don't take into consideration...

izaqyos: in my experience, commanders equipped with ring of regen. will sometimes get afflictions, but will heal them in the next couple of rounds. I think if you equip someone with a ring of regen AFTER they get an affliction it's too late to do anything about it. But I've definitely seen the former happen, several times.
