That's not even close to 2000.  54 is forgivable, 2050 is too, but • seriously,
what's the point of cap if it's going to be ignored, and if it's going to • be
ignored, why didn't anyone tell our team? :)

All right,

Just in case some of these baseless accusations are levelled at me :P ...

None of my troops exceeded the 50 CP limit.  The ones that might have seemed
to
surpass this only did so because I added in the cost of their horses (they
were
cavalry, after all!), which technically would actually by scored as
separate
creatures (and are, for the purposes of attacks, "autonomous").  A trooper
riding a dragon, for example, wouldn't count the dragon's cost in his own.
Anyway, each of my troops, plus all his/her equipment/armor/skills/etc, was
under the 50 CP mark.

Perfectly understanable - we didn't do it, but thought about it and decided
against it - I seem to remember some story about a super crazy hero on a super
crazy horse that both got decapitated by some super crazy invisible guy.

Admittedly, the total of everything that I scored up came to almost 2300
...
but they weren't all supposed to be used, sillies!  Don't even tell me you
guys
fielded my 130 CP of peasants and slaves ... they were designed for use in
a
game with lines of communication and chains of command.  Grrrrrr - I take my
CP
caps very seriously!

Actually uhh... I didn't see any peasants or slaves, or magic users in your army ;)
