Not 10 point cost, I raised it arbitrarily to 100, just to clarify this sort of situation.

[archaeolept]

sorry? what do you mean? ie. that was as clear as mud ;P

I certainly consider the archmage to be a legitimate choice for those who want him.

I tested it a bit and I can say the map is worth the download... very pretty. However, there are some "jumping provinces" errors:
16 and 9
16 and 29
31 and 9
...

nevermind, there are these little roads connecting... I think it's a feature. Watch out for that if you begin in the lower SE corner...

Anyway, I've had surprising times against the AI: it sent their artifact ward to go destroy my armies with banefires and this horrible horror-mark/send lesser horror combo. I had a big group of Nifel giants smashed by some dang artifact held by one of those wardens. Fun times.

Ha!! Thats great. I never thought that the AI would pick up on the Oath Rod/Twin Spear combo for Vanhiem. Van has some pretty nice artifacts.

yeah, it was neat that the wardens get picked up by the AI

The cursed items for Mictlan can't be droped. I take it that it will be fixed for all cursed items.(?)
