Good point. However, the fact remains that unless you have stealthy priests, you're going to have to conquer provinces to be able to preach and build temples, since any provincial defense will likely be able to defend against a solitary priest. Anyway, it was kind of meant as a joke.

Yeah, I appreciated your humor! It just got my mind chugging and I always like it when something I read does that.

And, yes, there are ways besides stealthy priests to deal with indies by they are very inefficient e.g. Miasma, using rituals that don't create units but damage things from afar, etc. So, it doesn't work too well. The priests would also have to be set on Retreat to stop them from fighting... It isn't very practical and fighting is, unfortunately, pretty much inevitable as you implied.

edit: actually, it seems you can set indies to zero! Hehehe... maybe it is possible after all
