You've killed our god! No, it was suicide!

Cant the AI remember what I fielded in the last battle?

I dont think the AI remembers anything about what you've fielded in the past, and might not be able to tell the difference between a dragon and a spy.

I'm pretty sure I've seen the AI adapt its armies (and what the mages cast) to what I'd been scripting, so it looks like the AI does remember something of what happened in previous battles.

I'm also not sure what happened after that--he kept returning into a provence I controlled and kept dying, turn after turn after turn.

Is that province by any chance the capital of his nation?

Turn after turn suggests his pretender is immortal...

Aren't immortals supposed to die permanently if their home province is under enemy control?
