i'm always a big fan of troop buffs - I find that they are underused, and this is one of the reasons a lot of people feel that national troops just don't cut it.

sure, they die, but w/ a few buffs they can threaten most SCs.

In my experience, very few buffs actually increase national troops' lethality; most just make them much, much more survivable. Which is tremendously useful against anything with enumbrance above zero, but mostly serves to keep one's mages and support thugs alive.
Buffed troops can be extremely effective, but they still don't justify taking an unmodded Productivity or Growth scale(or less than Sloth-3, for that matter). And I'd still rather use my gold and fire gems to summon fire snakes or recruit spam-capable mages.
