Slingers would be worth considering if their purchase price dropped by 2 gold per unit... otherwise they're rarely worth it based on morale and precision.

I voted 'I find them useful' for blowpipes, even though I don't....

I rarely have seen the blowpipe dudes use their archery poison pipes even when able to... so I rarely get them except for those extreme/scary conditions. Also their precision would have to be more accurate for me to consider them seriously in a marching army.
Mmmf, even at -2 gold I wouldn't buy slingers if their weapons still are so much crap.
Same for blowpipes, they have a very limited usefulness for sneaky tactics, but are horribly weak, only 1 time out of 10 (100?) do they manage to use their pipe before routing !
