PD can be usefull to lower unrest, starting at ten. Costs less in the long run than having an army patrolling (or just less micro...), especially in ennemy dominion
According to the manual PD patrols to find spies but I never seen it lowering unrest alone.

(and with the new stealth level of spies, you need far more than 10 PD to catch some)

Those are open ended die rolls. It doesn't happen often, but it is possible.

I've had bards (30 stealth!) caught by just PD and a few patrollers.

heh - I didn't mean to go too far into the vagaries of monkey PD, though I did enjoy the poem in the haiku thread.

You've all sussed the problem - I usually use a PD of 15, which for most races in SP is enough to discourage barbarian invasions and catch the occasional spy/assassin.

For those of you wondering, my last game on Sunday I knocked off C'tis, which put me in contact with Ermor. PD was catching a spy or assassin from the computer every other turn, and I still lost border leaders. It is worth it to put some PD points into places that border races with active assassins when playing the computer.

back on track - does anyone have any battle-specific spell combinations they like?
