Default Re: uhm,,playing C\'tis ?!?

oh god do I love serpent dancers. I always want to like Poison slingers, but in practice they never seem to work out for me. Either they're too slow behind the advancing front, and then walk into their own clouds, or they rush into melee, or they break w/ no reason and scatter to four surrounding provinces.

Besides that they are so pricey and I'd rather save the money for some Sauromancers.

If anyone has any tips on how to make them more dependable, I would appreciate it.

As well, I've never used the runners (and don't like the slave warriors). They're obviously rear flankers, but they just seem too wimpy to accomplish much. Does anybody use them?

I'd also appreciate any tips/ideas on how best to use Sauromancers. They're great units, but I'm pretty inexperienced w/ properly using magic to its best effect. Do c'tis experts tend to use them as battlfield undead summoners, heavy artillery (love that shadow bLast), or something else?

I suppose undead summons w/ poison slingers and a non-serpent dancer strategy might be very effective.
