 The best counter for Astral is essentially Astral itself. The spell ??Magic Duel?? creates a unique dynamic around Astral Magic, in which nations with Astral Mages and [[gems|Pearls]] to spare can choke out nations with fewer Astral Mages and/or levels.

Conversely, even pathetic Astral Mages provide cover against ??Mind Hunt??, a ritual that otherwise allows high-Astral nations to snipe their neighbors from several provinces away. The best counter for Astral is essentially Astral itself.

-Powerful Astral nations include MA Arcoscephale, MA Pythium, MA Bandar Log, EA Marverni, and all ages of R'lyeh.
