Start pumping Longbowmen whenever you can, and put the at the end of the battlefield covered by the vine ogres, they SHOULD do really well, esspecially against Elmor since your arrows wont really "miss".

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">This is broken empire Ermor, arrows, even longbows, aren't that effective against their human troops, as they have to get through both a defense of 14 vs. an attack of 10 for the arrows (due to the tower shields) and a protection of 14 (vs the 13 damage of the longbows).

Re: Help me survive against Ermor

It worked!

I managed to surround their largest army, and wiped them out. I used Bards, Longbows, Daoine Sidhe, a few Slingers, Horned Serpents, one Lord, one Tuatha and the Eternal Knights which I got just in time. Panic was cast a few times, don�t know if the Bards did cast Panic or just the Tuatha. I might have won even without Panic, but I think it helped. Lost only 3 or 4 men, though a few Daoine and a Castellan got feeble-minded. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

I am now finally numerically superior to Ermor, so I think they are finished! Thanks to everybody who gave advice, even those who were sceptical about my brilliant strat! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif Special thanks to Saber Cherry -you were dead right about the necessity to rethink my Research. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
