Never use magic duel!!
So I tried out magic duel in a PBEM game. I knew the seiging force had an Astral2 and an Astral4 mages (as the only commanders). So I Gateway'd in several commanders. I figured I could defeat the castle storm quickly by simply killing the two enemy mages with Magic Duel.
I had an Astral 5 and an Astral 7 mage (my pretender!) scripted to Magic Duel after sufficiently buffing up (they were packed with antimagic gear and buffs, as well as penetration items). Well, my Astral 5 mage died Dueling the Astral 2 mage! And my Astral 7 mage died while killing the Astral 4 mage.
My loses: Astral 5 and Astral7 mage
Enenmy loses: Astral 4 mage
