Assassin nations?

Thanks for that. I guess it's just one of those things you can't see, but have to trust that it works. I'm glad to hear it does. I always though EC's had perfect prescison, tho. I can see how for an assassination situation that would be overpowered, though.

I've just recently switched to a nation that can make the etheral crossbow with its own mages and I've come to like it to equip mundane commanders. I usually play one nation at a time so I also haven't often played a nation with assassins and the few times I've had assassins was from sites, which are few and far between. I previously equipped assassins with the bow of madness, but I think the EC is better.

Because I don't routinely have access to assassins I don't use them as a strategy, but more of an experimental toy. I keep trying to get a pretender or major mage with the bow of madness or etheral crossbow. No luck to date. My assassins seem to always go after mundane commanders or low level mages when they weren't getting killed off by the PD.
