What about some SC strategies for pretenders? IS the pain point to get your defense really high or your protection really high?

From the manual it seems that though high defense can make or break you in a huge battle with masses of troops that have a superior defense. A smaller force, especially a lone pretender, that even has a high defensive will get dropped when he is swarmed by 2 a hit.

So is this really that viable a strat for a lone pretender?

Thanks!

You after go for defense first for a SC, this means awe, fear, etheral, luck, regeneration, mistform, invulnerability, mirror image, high protection/defense etc...

Once you are satisfied he is near to invincible then look to how he will kill everything.

Creating a SC/thug that can defeat the AI is fairly easy, creating one that defeat other players in MP is very, very hard.
