Devistating Problem - glitch

[ClasuSiosa]

Im playing on my first increasing difficulty game as the Calabim. Doing well and at war with the Ljos. Problem is i have a weak economy and cant out produce them, so i desided to try a disease rush.

But now my Diseased Corpses wont pass on the disease! Am i doing something wrong, or is this truely a glitch?

I think the Rituallists are gonna save me, but i really want to have the Disease pass on.

Ps. I have had disease work before in other games. Often as the same Civ (Calabim) and Leader (Flauros)

Thanks in advance for any help!

Ok, one finally passed it on. What are the odds? I went through 5-7 Corpses before one finally passed it on...

The Ljosalfar are very tough. You need to cripple their economy, and that means wiping out their forests. Start with a big stack of melee and archer units and at least four workers. You will move into their territory and pillage and chop, one tile at a time, until there is nothing left but the cities. While that is going on, build catapults... lots of them. In the end you can reduce and take each elven city in turn.

I've found Disease to be a hit or miss kind of attack. It is often resisted, especially late in the game. I think the chances of it being resisted increase with the experience of the unit. If the elves are building Priests of Leaves, those units will have gained considerable experience just sitting around.

Maybe you should grab some firemana and burn the forests, its probly faster.
