Whoops, I'm having one of those weeks. Accidentally send the wrong turn to the server. Send in a partially completed turn.

Well it did not stop any armies yet. But it is considered to be a bad move. Sending out single commanders just to attack/scout. As one commander can stop entire armies.

Well i experienced something different in an other game.
I ve been attacked by a lonely SC, an army that was quite large and planning to move to an other prov.

The turn ran like this : My army defend the province from the SC and then moved to the wished prov.

So i guess my scout will never block your army will they?

It will, there are chances that an army will be blocked, and there are chances it will move on. Dunno about the exact numbers. But it is high enough to make it a possible tactic. Recruit one commander each turn, and send it against the army.

Did that SC come at you from the province you were moving to or did it teleport into the province?

Well, flying like, sailing, teleporting, sneaking etc, works differently.

Ps: if you really want to moveblock, don't forget to set the commander to retreat. Try it in SP.

Well that was a bad turn. Losing 15+ cap only mages hurts a lot.

If nobody else starts to fight ermor he has won basically.

(And stealing the GoH was stupid. It weakend me a lot, thanks for that).
