Default Re: Ermor(Middle Age) VS Elephants.

In CBM, spells like Earth grip are lowered to level 0.

Similiarly, tangle vines etc. You want to let just a couple of elephants through.

But lastly, as ermor, I'd really look at either ghost grip or Fright. Elephant morale only starts as an 8, as I recall, and if he's invading you, and gets hostile dominion and a fright - he's down to 2.

IIRC, ghost grip has 5+targets and stuns for oh 20-40 stun, with a good range. 4 casters of that, casting at a group of 10-20 elephants should be enough that

ANY missile troops should slaughter them. People forget that chance to hit with a missile weapon is related both to size (elephants are huge) and fatigue.

You shouldn't have any problem stopping 20 elephants with 4 ghost grippers, 40 slingers.. and 6 or 8 vestals.
