Default Re: Any good strategies for C\'tis Poison Slingers

As with most shooters (archers, longbow, crossbow) you can lessen friendly fire by putting the slingers to the flanks of your army.

Also they work well in the bait-and-gauntlet tactic. Having hvy units do hold-and-attack closest, then have the slingers do a fire-and-flee. They will run forward, hit units with poison, then run back thru your holding line.
