Default Re: Vampires, anyone?

Regarding ally summoning, its not a problem for most things. The summons are for for the most only good becuase they are free, not becuase they are particularly potent troops.

The Vampires are really only considered a problem becuase they are immortal... after all their stats are not great for the late game.

Immortality is the kicker: imagine, if you will, fighting and beating the mile-wide mass of 800 vampires at great expense, only to have them reappear the next turn at the guys capital... oh the headaches.

It can certainly be a problem if you are not equipped to deal with it, e.g. wrathful skies, firestorm, or other dramatic battlefield wide killing spell.
