Re: Opinions on Caelum (MA and other)
The stats for the Caelum infantry are not great to begin with, but flight just makes them suck.
They rush into battle where they are exposed to concentrated fire. They fatigue out very rapidly, making their sup-par stats simply abysmal. And when they inevitably take the heavy losses that they have coming to them, they fly away. Which means if you are playing Caelum and win a battle with an army that included infantry in its ranks, you are likely to be without any infantry for a follow up assault. You are constantly having to go back and round the cowardly infantry from all surrounding friendly provs.
The elite Caelum infantry make descent bodyguards, but that is about it.
