In the scout attack, I saw that the commander had no bodyguards. If fact, he stayed behind to cast spells, thus providing some separation between him and the Heavy Infantry.

My biggest worry is that the pretender does not fly all the way to the back and lands in the infantry. If I have scripted it correctly, he has two rounds of attacks before my archers are gone. He could possibly be dead in two rounds from the sheer mass of HI.

Hm... I am getting cold feet. Maybe I ought to play it safe and not attack. After all, I am a total newbie and never did anything like this before.


CHICKEN???

Edited to say 'Cluck cluck!' I just changed it to not attack.
