Re: Sphinx Killin Tips
 

What's a "properly built sphinx"? At 60 points and 40 per new path, building an immobile SC is not cheap and not at all worth it. I'd say you could reasonably add one or two other paths at most.

If we're assuming the sphinx is alone, communion isnt a factor so he'll fatigue out after casting a few spells, so you probably dont even need armor piercing. What's the chance to pierce armor at 100 fatigue? Only ways he can get back fatigue are with drain life/soul vortex and relief. You should send lifeless troops to deal with the astral shield, so you don't have to worry about drain life. I doubt he would spam Relief but if he does you'll have to bring armor piercing troops. Otherwise just get the highest damage lifeless troops you can find. You could use Arrow Fend/Storm to take care of the tower fire.
