You mean me casting Utterdark? I think you overestimate my research progress

[Papastoss]

My apologies for stalling. I was headed out for a trip and I thought I was bringing my laptop which has Dom3 on it so I could play my turns but at the last second I didn't bring it and I didn't have the time to get a sub.

Sorry about that.

damn, what a showdown at Caelum's capital

Sauromatia salutes the brave warriors who fell in the battles of Rocknest Forest.

What a lame stunt to attack my army with a scout to stop it.

[duke_commando]

i just did that to see your army...you can't stop an army with scouts as far as I know, since movement in friendly territory occurs before attacks. Thats why I attacked both the provinces on our border, since I wasn't sure where you were going to go.

Edit:
Actually i guess I didn't know the movement rules as well as I thought. I thought you had to be adjacent to an enemy province to attack it, since I've never been able to attack otherwise, but apparently if you've got a move 3 commander it becomes possible, even if your troops are move 2.
So, sorry about blocking your army...i agree that it's pretty cheap, but that wasn't my intention.

incidentally, does teleporting/gating/faerie trod/whatever
onto an enemy army stop it as well?

[Hadrian_II]

I think movement has some random elements to it, but a battle even with a scout can be able to stop the other army.

Nope, spells come in a diffrent turn phase, before army movement.
