It sure does. That 100 gold is disposable. Don't get me wrong I generally make thurges + communicants instead of arch thurges, but you have to make sure that your wars are concluded in a few short battles or you are going to lose a lot of gold.

Really? I don't know what metric you are going by. In terms of awesome human troops I would think that the Emerald Guard would be the best human troops in the game. If you think that elves are human than probably vans are the best. If you are saying that they have the best price performance then I don't know what is the best troop. I always figured it was the principes of either Pythium or Ermor ( BE ) but really I have never crunched the numbers.
