R'lyeh Strategies

[PrinzMegaherz]

IMHO Lobo Guards are some of the best arrow fodders you can get. They are amazingly cheap and never rout. R'lyeh is a good candidate for sloth scale, with lobo guards and illithids using few ressources.
Early expension works especially well with Lobo guards, it does not matter if you lose some of them, and 40-50 lobo guards will beat even 80+ triton troopers because their morale never breaks (unlike that of the tritons).
