Man against Atlantis

[13lackGu4rd]

first of all Man's PD is pretty decent, so to defend those coastal provinces your PD and a few mages should be good enough to defend against Atlantian raids. as for actually taking the fight underwater, you'd need some Water mages and Water income to get yourself some water breathing items for your Thugs/SCs. raid his sea provinces with Thugs/SCs while defending your own coastal provinces should be a solid solution.

more specific solutions would require more information, such as MA or LA(Atlantis and Man appear in both and are pretty different in both), your research levels, Atlantis' previous attacks on you(amphibious armies, raiding Thugs, etc) and other information you can give.

One of man´s strong points are their castles.... consider the option of building a couple of castles in the contested provinces.... it will serve to slow down any invasion force...
