Are you saying one casting of Apsu will dispel an Air Dome? Damn, if only I had read this a few days ago. To avoid an air dome protecting a VP province, I tried teleporting to an adjacent province and accidentally ran into another huge army that was intending to take the same VP - mutual obliteration was the result.

"Cheap" is the word. I think this is a pretty cheezy tactic, I wouldn't do it. I suspect there's a lot of people who'd disagree with me though.

I agree. It is a cheesy tactic, and should be eliminated from the game.
