Why would that be boring?

Oh, right johan osterman, I forgot about the magic sites, which are basically the most important thing in the game because who needs a mundane army when you can have a summoned one?
I'm not sure what you are complaiming about. There are very few effective armies that can be built out of summoned troops only.

Well, when I played my first Mictlan game, I kept thinking to myself. Why didn't I use any other blood nation instead? The ones that have troops that can actually stand up against the enemy and compliment my demonic divisions of doom.

And on that second part, I meant that an enormous percentage of your armies can be made of summons and your nation soldiers just become support. Looked like I meant armies made completely of one type or the other, my bad.

Try Mictlan with a Fire 9 Moloch. Sun & Eagle warriors are quite good for their cost, and Jaguar Warriors can be build in all castles.

Are jaguar warriors sacred? I was under the impression that they weren't

So the little icon on the unit description that says "Sacred" is just a big trick by the Ilwinter guys?

That is a good trick. I wonder how many other units have the icon but are not actually sacred.

Frankly if I was unit I would definetly paint that little icon on me. I'm sure the sacred units can demand a lot more respect out of the average peons.

I wonder if priest are sacred?? hmm...
