The problem with dispelling Utterdark by the time you did it was that I had about 2/3 of the world. So even though you got more mileage out of your money due to better mages, I had so much more money it was a net benefit to me. With the money I got, I was gearing up for a domkill, which I hadn't been able to do earlier since I couldn't recruit the Vanjarls I needed. The dispel would probably have sped up the win as the domkill was only going to take a few turns (I think...) while grinding through all the forts and stomping the wandering Tartarians would have taken quite a while.

Flop, it wasn't that your SCs were bad, it's that I avoided fighting them except on my terms. The fights were pretty much either army fights where I had a much larger army (and generally more SCs as well) or where I airdropped SCs designed to kill the specific ones you had there. The one way they weren't the best was that a lot had equip and scripts to jump into the back and attack, which would be very effective against a mage army but less so against my armies, which were more thug-oriented.

Now Szumo's SCs, yeesh. I think at one point I lost 5 SC battles in a row. That was certainly a learning experience!

Great game, thanks everybody!
