Units do get a morale bonus of +1 in their home province. And an additional one from their home dominion. This might seem like it wouldn't have much effect but it does. Same goes for many of the other seemingly low bonuses, such as the stat increases on elite units that I assume is what Fyron is belittling. Just because the values doesn't look that impressive doesn't mean they are insignificant. I will assume that Fyron is reffering to Jotun Hirdmen vs ordinary Jotun giants. In this case I certianly think they are worth their cost increase in many cases. If you need a hard hitting center to storm a castle, has more money than resources or facing an opponent with above average defense on his troops. Do not dismiss missile troops just because of friendly fire incidents, while you may feel the casualties from tfriendly fire is to high they are, under many circumstances, very useful, and you would do yourself a disservice in competitive play if you dismissed them completely.
