Re: Carrion Woods pretender setup
I agree - it can take five or six battles to kill off the militia since they turn to run so rapidly, even when you setup your troops for the purpose of killing them. Add to this the grief of getting a commander to them to bring them somewhere to get into a battle, and then the grief of rounding them up after each battle they run away from.
It really sucks that it takes Conjuration-9 and 5 death gems to have a good chance of killing them off and stopping the drain on the miniscule gold income that death nations tend to have.
And it _is_ a sizable drain for themes like CW: 10 gold can be 1/10th of the total gold income for the nation as the game goes on and the population dies. If it takes 10 turns to kill them off, that's 100 gold, which is a huge amount to lose as CW or, presumably, Ermor's death themes.
