Correction: Niefelheim has *the* worst PD in the game, so OmikronWarrior is exactly right-hit them on multiple fronts. And remember, Niefelheim can't produce that many of their "unstoppable" armies, so figure out where they're going to land on you, and put them through as much hell as you can.

I actually prefer E9 N8 for Niefel. Berserk is great, but not so great for Jarls, especially since I like mixing as many H2 priests in with the regular Niefels as possible, for Sermon of Courage. Combined with Bless, that's +4 to Morale, +6 in my own Dominion-more than enough to compensate for a lack of Berserk on my Sacreds.

That said-if you can skellyspam them, or use other low level undead, that should slow Niefels down long enough to make your archers and javelineers count. Don't ignore your own PD either, the more troops you can hit them with, the better your chances.

Curse spam is a nice idea, combined with low level evocation spells, since a wounded Niefel is a weaker Niefel, and Curse can't be cured.

You also might want to pay for some Ice Drakes-to hold the Niefels down, and Fire Drakes-to damage them. It's expensive, but enough of them in Niefel's way, used properly, will hurt-and they're low level summons available to everyone.
