Thuggity Thug [efficient thug builds]

[Saxon]

Hmm, fair enough, I don't think we have a solid dictionary on this. However, I alwyas thought a thug was a unit you could send off to trash the back side of the enemy empire. The run into PD and small armies and eat them, but if they hit a real army they are done for. A SC is a unit that can take the big armies and eat them. In both cases, they do it themselves. The missle units just don't deliver in that area.

This is why we hear about Black Servant thugs. They can and do operate alone, but are not big army killers.

As an aside, a support unit I have recently been enjoying is my "Fort Killer." It is a commander with a "Gate Splitter" and an endless wine skin. Brings extra knock down power to your seige and helps make sure they don't starve. Also nice for carrying gems...
