Default Re: Glamour counter

I'll cast "channel IRC veterans"
[Maerlande]
There are some tricks
The worst part isn't killing them, It's catching them

Regarding gear:
Demon whip rocks and so does the poison staff, because it has area of effect, which should cancel glamour.
I used Khans with demon whips
But if you have Poison Resist commanders I'd use the snake bladder, put it on cheap commanders
Sombrero adds, Harvest blade to spam entangle. (Which also can work later on lone SC, entangle stops it in place).

[Sombrero]
Oh it's not too hard.
Cloud spells.
Immobilisation spells. Like bonds of fire. Poison cloud works.
Sleep and sleep cloud don't. Because glamour dudes have high mr.
But tangle vines, Poison cloud, Swarm Those work.
Maerlande, adds Breath of dragon should work too.

[Maerlande]
If you have water numbness should work, or stellar cascades if you have S. Earth meld, should work if you have E. If you have F+E or W use brands. For the AOE.

[Trumanator, Sombrero]
Spam archers, since glamour does nothing to projectiles and most glamour troops have **** shields.
So, cheap massed missile troops.

[Sombrero]
Entangle works, 5 fat each casting, and keeps something stuck for good.

[Sombrero, Trumanator]
Blowpipes indies would work.
They do poison based fatigue damage.
They're actually pretty nasty when used by a player.
They just get a bad rap because they suck at defending indy provinces.

[Sombrero]
If they're poison resist?
Well since we're limited to N magic,...
You're kinda out of options.

[Calawank]
Tell the guy fighting those glamour troops to make sure he actually has troops himself to kill them. Since all too often I've seen player turn up to fight glamour/tramplers with a load of mages to cast tangle or earth meld, but then no real troop to kill them while they''ve been stopped

[QM]
Suggest using flamewars.

[Soyweiser]
Wow... that channel spell feels wierd... all these voices talking at once.

So to recap.
Use poison if they have no resistance. Area of attack spells so you bypass glamour. Try to root them in place with different nature spells. Shoot them if their shields suck. Bonus if you can use blowpipes because these also put them asleep. Don't use anything that is resistible by magic.

Next time you could also post your question in the other forum. As long as you have a reasonable question like this, you will get a reasonable answer.
