Units (no commander) with Fear
 
I am interested in exploring fear and awe combinations in front-line troops. Does anyone have a list of units that produce fear (not commanders).

So far i got this:

If you spread them out right so that this affects a significant portion of the enemy forces you don't have to do much fighting.

I think Helhirdmen used to have fear.

Definitely onyx amazons

Ghost spam. Ftw.

Horrors and False Horrors are nice too.

Hydras.
Also, LA T'ien Chi ancestor vessels lack fear but their arrows cause fear.
Nightmares (the onyx amazon riders with 15 encumbrance!)

Not sure if you play with CBM, but in the latest version kithaironic lions have fear.

I can't believe I forgot Demon Knights (both vanilla and CBM) - cavalry without any encumbrance issues.

Edit: Uh, I guess I should have read Baalz' post more carefully since he already mentioned Demon Knights. :p

Demon knights are sweet. Strategically and thematically. I really wonder what their plane of hell is like. Some double oppressive feudal system with lesser demons tormenting souls as serfs?
