To tell you the truth, I really was going to take it easy on the WA after he requested advice on what to do. I usually just play for fun and take it easy on those who request it but then I noticed his other posts which pretty much said that my tactic of keeping my groups together for safety against the two of them was something for newbies so I had to change some things around.
Instead of a mild attack with spells like guarded attack, I decided to punish him a bit with death and kill wizard spells and boy did they! The 2WA is down to just 2 brigades from 23 after the death spells and battle. His 4WA wizards were all killed so he lost 6,4,4 in that group. It was brutal for him. He has one WA group left that I pursued so he should be done in the next turn.
Still wondering why he moved his group further into my region rather than teleporting out with his lich. If you teleport your group away, enemy forces can't pursue yours for another round of attacks. BTW, I didn't lose any leaders or wizards and lost only 1 brigade from the battle with the 2WA. His death spell took out more but after being involved in three battles (2WA, 4WA, city), my group now has 3 warlords which more than made up for the difference.
Call it karma or justice but the WA may be out soon...
Your assumptions are disturbing. I didn't say I was going to quit and I didn't ask for advice and I didn't ask you to take it easy on me. I was explaining my thoughts on the upcoming battle and responding to your comments for whatever value they may have to newer players that may not have experienced this type of situation.
There are counters I could have done given hindsight of what you actually did that would have made the results better - I think - but those options would have been a disaster if you had tried other things. As I said, I fully expected to lose my groups & wizards in the battle. Well played. Next time I hope to do better.
