Frost Dragon Infestation destroying me
First part here is a bit of a rant, skip to the line if you don't care.
I'm doing the second part of Empires and Ashes story realms and everything was going great, except there's a dragon nest south of my main city. The stack guarding it has a Frost Dragon, and every stack it spits out also has a frost dragon with 195 hp. I'm effectively paralyzed by it because the Frost Dragons are terrorizing my throne city, and my Ruler's army needs to be nearby to stop the raiders. I marched two armies down to try taking care of it, but I ended up just closing the game in frustration when I got attacked by two patrolling armies with Frost Dragons.
I'm playing a Mystic Society heavily based on Astral and spellcasting. I have two armies, with one being led by a Defender who has a few Spellshields, a Soother, etc. He's meant to hold the line. The other is my Ruler's army that has the bulk of the caster units, a Soother, and some of its own Spellshields. They're meant to deal a lot of the damage, while still being reasonably self sufficient. Basically the problem I'm running into is that the dragons just freeze my entire frontline when they get in range, and then if my battlemages are in range to attack at all the dragons fly over and just one-turn them. T1, T2, T3 battlemages, just doesn't matter. Shield Wall + Warding on them just doesn't matter.
---------------------------------------------------------
Now, in being annoyed and trying to think up a solution, I realized something that's kind of weird. Frost Dragons can't be taunted, because they're "Control Loss Immune." They can, however, be made insane/mad if I'm on my Eldritch Sovereign. Insanity and Taunted are functionally extremely similar so it's weird that they can't be applied the same imo. In both cases the units remain in their owner's control though they're uncontrollable, and their actions are forcibly spent attacking a unit. Either Taunt should work or Insanity shouldn't, but that one does and one doesn't seems like a weird inconsistency. Personally, I'd like to see Taunt be made to work so I have a good answer to mythic flying units just ignoring my frontline other than just trying to burn them.
tl;dr: Mythics with a mind should be able to be taunted just like they can be inflicted with insanity.
