Anyone who think they can win against this army?

only one commander, no unit limit tho

your pretender is unique btw so he doesn't count

can't count on him to fight for you on a huge map either, if i was on a huge map i'd refit my commander with a flying armor instead of that jade one.

Heh. As a World Map player, I play on huge maps all the time, and I *DO* count on my pretender for fighting: In fact, my pretender is the only thing I can reliably get to mobilize in force on a moment's notice, since I'm usually camping out in a lab (airbase), waiting to airdrop into hot spots.

I think that a decently equipped Tartarian should be able to accomplish the job just fine, though.

*shrug* Again, lightning immunity is cheap to put onto any commander with a spare misc slot.
A Bane Lord with a Ring of Tamed Lightning and an amulet of magic resistance would probably do it for cheap -- takes only 1 air, 1 astral, a couple death. Comes with a magical weapon so mistform is meaningless, will laugh off the wrathful skies, has good enough MR to ignore the phantasmal weapons and to bypass blood vengeance, and doesn't get tired.

Uhm.

Ice Devil (with arms)

Blood Thorn
Lucky Coin
Winged Helmet
Elemental Armor
Winged Boots
Antimagic Amulet
Ring of Regeneration

Set to Cast: Quickness, Breath of Winter, Attack -Wherever.

Edit: Or if you don't have access to fire/earth, Rainbow Armor/Ring of Tamed Lightning

I'm not really familiar with what your force does exactly, but I don't think a strong opponent would have any difficulty finding antidotes to this. Cheap units that can be given magic items, given anti-shock items and wicked but cheap magic weapons.

dont *edit* "dis"count the physical prowess of the storm devils, their melee attack is still armor negatating even tho the lightning part of their attack do no damage the strenght does damage.
i wanna see your ice devil take on them as i am not sure of the outcome.

i could switch the storm devils for some very slow grand melee units(guard commander) and add "cast storm warriors"(or thunder ward which is much cheaper) and 1 more air gem but that's a bit too much research for me, now gimme a non lightning immune army to challenge this one if it's possible.

it's great for anything but caelum,storm devils,lots of mechanical dragons&men and ry'leh othernesses.

now gimme more suggestions ^_^
