Re: I have yet to play a bless strategy....
An unlisted bless strategy :
Atlantis LE, W9A8+ (option : W9E9, but +4 protection isn't as efficient as air shield with all the crossbownen in LE), the idea is : the Assartut already have good magic weapons and a correct attack skill, have 16hp, do a lot of dammage, and are cheap (25g, 10res) allowing to take sloth to finance the bless, their only weakness is their protection (12). The water bless give them an honorable 14 defense + the quickness effect, the air bless a 60+% air shield, and they become as good as 3 times more expensive sacred.
This strategy is very efficient on small maps, even if there are many counters (engaging more troops, using AE spells, tramplers...) they are more expensive than Asartuts. Their real weakness is to be capitol only. Being able at best to make only 10 of them a turn makes the scales cost of this strategy prohibitive on big maps.
