Strategy tips for newbie C'Tis

[Torin]

Early, light infantry and Lizard Kings for smiting.
Later add heavy infantry and later on Skeleton spamming Sauromancers.
Several common sauromancers and one more powerful (skull staff and skull helm) casting darkness will make your skeletons better. Bring a small front of heavy infantry there.

Abysians are better taken out by smite.
Massed archers with heavy troops.
keep away from cold provinces where your sauromancers get extra encumbrance for being coldblooded.
