   Okay - Background: Was recently attacked by "syl," went to defend. Chose my Unscur as leader of the battalion and placed him on an Earth tile somewhere near the middle.
  Problem: As soon as I go back to the Defend screen, it says that both my opponent, syl, and myself control three tiles, and my Unscur is defeated - without a single monster of his being visible on the field. And this is only a few seconds after I choose to defend the territory. Slanted Mouth What gives?

  Not a problem!
  
  This is actually a 1% occurance, Cheet: You and syl chose the same tile to place your leaders on at the start.
  
  A 10x10 grid and you both decided that one earth would be prime real estate. That happened to me in one of my battles. While confusing, tracing what the patterns were leads to the conclusion (and asking Ems) that both went on the same spot.
  
  There's no way to avoid this if it comes up, so there's only one logical solution: Both monsters are defeated and removed from play.
  
  No corpse is left behind for corpse-involving abilities/powers such as healing or whatnot.
  
  So, good bringing it up. Now people know if the odds are slim when fate hands them a fight, they might have this to look forward to!

   Ah, that's a relief. Thought I'd buggered something. Thanks for the fast reply, Gobbo. Smile

  Correction: no corpses are left behind because ownerships cancel out.
  
  Even when not on the same tile, if two leaders' patterns overlap, they cancel out -- regardless of element.
  
  Thing is, how do you cancel out the ownership of a spot when monsters, not tiles, are involved? Even more problems crop up when you consider that monsters can be referenced by coordinates on the map. Which would be pointed to?
  
  
  Easy solution: eradicate them. They can still use powers from the place they no longer exist, however. Ain't that wacky?
