I just tried the same thing with a DS 42 Agent (no stealth).
Very dead, but I expected that.  The goal was to get Saruman
to leave my camp.  Thought I'd post just in case someone was
collecting statistics on this issue.

This new 1650 game has been almost harassment.
Gandalf takes apart a Witch-king pop. center then immediately
moves South of Mordor and takes apart an Ice King camp.  When
he destroys that, without a turns break, Saruman moves onto an
Ice King camp.  Out of the first 9 turns of NPC attacks, that
last one is the only one that makes sense as the camp Saruman
moved to was next to Orthanc.  This is my first DS game -- has
anyone else seen such serious efforts by FP NPC's so early in
the game?

I suppose by the time I get an 80 Agent, the Istari will not
be so easily found.
