eh, that's rather an exageration. most good sacreds will cut them up. They're giants, with the weaknesses giant troops generally have - expense, supplies, and being swarmed.
The thing is you need an expensive air bless against them, not the best thing unless you ONLY face hinnom where it should be a common used one, I think I can say that with the experience I had from a bit of gaming. Plus a Dawn blade, a non sacred unit weapon which is basically a magic item to itself with very good attack and damage in the hands of a hoardable unit type is really good. Plus 3 supply isn't too difficult to provide if you can crank up a few food carriers, easily recruitable achas bearing the wineskins they can easily make...
