Intresting, but from what I have seen the AI builds pd everywhere.

Assassins can work wonders. Eliminate the characters holding the armies together before you attack and Eremor becomes a non-issue, as long as you can keep his domain away.

Which is again an issue if he has PD...
Also, some of Ermor's commanders can be quite tough.

True enough. Assassinating a wraith consul would be hard, and a dusk elder almost impossible.

How good is purgatory?
Astral is nice for solar rays/brilliance if you can get it.
The forbidden light isn't bad, but there is only one, and it's const. 8.
What about inner sun? or phoenix pyre/reinvig?

opnions?

Forbidden light is also rough because it tends to get whomever is wielding it killed, even pretenders. Big honking huge horrors show up - I've even lost pretenders to 'em.

You'll eventually fight his main commanders though, once they're gone the PD commanders are fairly easy to deal with.

Never said it would be easy

Doesn't have to be one on one though, simply having a good combat character who can somehow engage the Ermor commanders at the start of battle can also work. A good bow in the hands of a high precision commander or someone equipped with boots of flying and some of the anti-undead weapons should do it (especially against the AI). Back them up with some bowmen to help finish off the rest of the army as it crumbles and you could probably start taking provinces without taking any casualties.
