Re: More thinking on S&A
 

Let's not stray off topic ~_^. What're people strats and experiences with s&A?

Re: More thinking on S&A
 

I've had mages survive being hit by arrows many times. If it's melee attacks, then yeah, they're in trouble already. Berserk won't make a difference.

It's worse with the fire demons, since they're more likely to be targeted with arrows. Tough enough to take a shot, but quite fragile once they've closed.

Are they the only sacred ranged unit? (Not counting javelins and the like)

well a flying cm with boosters along with maybe 40 w9 fire demons (and 4-5 water demons as a shield) does wonders for me (and costs too much) but then again i clam alot with S&A (even under cb)

Re: More thinking on S&A
 

I never get to a stage where I can field 40 w9 fire demons.

Re: More thinking on S&A
 

lol, for my expansion i usually get 2 nobles with horror helms+shields of valour/airshield ammy on my flanks to hit archers backed up by archers of my own, while this is out my mages clam and site search.

Re: More thinking on S&A
 

Hierophants, Saggitarian archers, Pegasus riders, Demons of heavenly fire,... that's all I can think of.

Re: More thinking on S&A
 

Vanir and Mictlan's Sun Warriors have Javelins. They benefit from the Fire 9 bless, and would fly farther with Blood bless, but aren't of much use.

for an outdated thread on S&A I thought this discussion was pretty interesting.

Re: More thinking on S&A
 

ranged attacks don't gain anything from an F9 bless. all melee attacks do, however.

Re: More thinking on S&A
 

I don't actually really consider F9 that great for TC as a blitz. W9 completely overshadows it IMO for S&A.
