New Mod: The Hive

[Uh-Nu-Buh]

Tactics to use For: intersperse one advanced unit for every 10-15 Workers. I like the Impregnator, because they are great morale breakers. Put some Manipulators in there for sheer damage power. Soldiers are good and inexpensive for what you get--but they can't swarm. The swarm tactic really works. Plan on 2:1 odds at least, 4:1 if you want to make sure you win. Storming castles is extra hard--expect high losses.

Tactics to use Against: arrows--lots and lots of arrows! Target the larger critters to get rid of the Impregnators. Put a mass of spearmen out front and have them wait. Give your archers a chance to do their work. Knights clean up for the most part--they are heavily armored and have multiple attacks. Midget Masher items. Anything that tramples makes a mess of these guys--chariots, elephants, iron pigs.
