Re: Tactic : how to fight undead ?

People have already mentioned buying Priests. Treat Priests as elite units. They cost less than most single cavalry units. Have a minumum of 10 per army. They are also great for driving down...

Re: Enslave Mind then Gift of Reason question

Yeah, Ice Devils are tough, that's why I want to GoR him. I was just being a little bit facetious about the water path, although only a little. Winterland is a victory site on the Orania map and...

Enslave Mind then Gift of Reason question

An indy province was commanded by an Ice Devil with 4 water skill (IIRC). I got him via Enslave Mind. Of course, he is now a unit with no magic skill. If I cast Gift of Reason on him, will he...

Re: Castle Defence Bonus (%d) ?

Re: Area of Effect = 1?

Maenads are the best. Very good morale, berserkers. Just get a couple Pans together and build up 50 or so every couple turns, cast Mass Protection on them, and you have yourself a free army.

Re: Worst Summon ??

Quote: "The Spring Hawks are a far superior summons: They're physically weaker, but they fly and have a lightning attack(which I believe will stun)."

What exactly is the effect of the lightning...

Re: Worst Summon ??

Re: Best summon?

I like Enliven statues for the reasons mentioned below - definitely like them more than Clockwork Horrors or Mechanical Men.

One of my Favorites though is Ivy King. Not much of a unit by himself...

Re: Best way to deal with ethereals en masse?

Ethereal undead die to banishment just like all the other undead. Priests, priests, and more priests. Treat priests like a normal unit. Indeed, they are less expensive than many elite units, and...

Re: National troops and mages vs SC and High Magics

My experience is that SC units are vulnerable to single-target spells like Petrify (a sucessful resist versus petrify mean that SC is paralyzed) or Soul Slay. They CAN be debuffed with things like...

Re: Should I make commander with 4 holy a prophet?

I always go for Holy 5 if the nation allows it (i.e., having a holy-4 recruitable unit). Early game against indy provinces, smite is very effective.

Pythium with a holy-5 arch theurg and a dozen...

Given that Starspwn have only a 5% chance of feebelmindedness, it's not a bad deal. Once their summoning skill increases, they really start pulling in the good spawns.

Re: Pythium and Hydras

For the price of 10-15 Hydras, you could have 10-15 Master Theurg's. They cost a bit more (360 vs 250), but their upkeep is less because they are sacred. I've rather have the Mind...
