Default Re: A Few (Really) Good Men: Guide to Ashdod

Potential use for chaffy human troops:

If you need to defend a position from an elite enemy army and sacreds aren't appropriate (maybe they're Ulmish Guardians, or the enemy has too many mages), set aside the following ingredients (Requires Alt-7; Ench-3, Conj-3 optional):

100-200 chaffy humans (often massable in one or two turns of recruitment)
Darkness (makes troop stats not matter as much by halving the differential)
Marble Warriors (durability--combined with your still-low fatigue)
Iron Bane (to make chaffy troops do damage when they hit)
Optional Strength of Giants (as Iron Bane, but a little moreso)
Optional Legions of Steel (a little bit more durability)

Combine ingredients in medium-sized province. Mix well. Scale up just by increasing the number of chaffy troops.

I expect wolf tribe warriors are probably ideal for this strategy?
