Default Re: Dealing with Hydras

Umbrals + Iron Warriors is probably worth a shot, if you've got the research and the gems. Use them as blockers while your mages spam them with (Terror/Blade Wind/Skelly spam/whatever you have researched). Shooting from the hip, I'd say 10 umbrals with Iron Warriors up should be able to whip 40 hydras, perhaps even without any mage backup. Of course I could be radically underestimating--I'll simulate this battle later.
