I do not really like the idea of using lots of weaker low-HP low morale troops. They will take losses which will slow the initial expansion, they will be slaughtered by archer fire and evocations, and they will rout often. And again - they will be killed in great numbers, which is ok for free chaff like undead or maenads, but bakemono cost money, and eventually they will turn out to be more expensive then Dai Bakemono armies due to high attrition - draining gold which could be used to hire more wonderful Shinuyama mages.

Of course, I am not even very good at MP and did not test this strategy, so I am very possibly wrong, just giving my first thoughts. Anyway, thank you for another interesting guide.
