Well, there's always jade amazons, which are just about my favourite independents to find. I second the bane lord choice, as they are extremely good at what they do.

Thanks for the tip. Alas, I haven't found any as yet, nor have I observed any of my opponents fighting any indy ones.

Indeed they are. Which is why I already have one (Ashsoul, who's currently sitting in Jotunheim).

Buy mages until you get lucky is always a reasonable deal. You could always use more research. Even if you don't get the one you want, you're still increasing your research output.

hmmmm... "Ashsoul" eh?

I think I would change the name.

(try saying it 3 times quickly)

I like it just fine as is. It suits him, I think.

For part of a mobile response force, perhaps consider summoning a pack (or more when you can afford it) of draconians? They're upkeep free (according to the summons list I checked, anyway), and the Chief can summon more draconian allies for *free* (I love free!) while he's waiting around.

The drawback to that is that draconians are simply unimpressive: They are weak and easily killed. The single aforementioned Bane Lord would beat the snot out of the aforementioned Draconians. What good are they as a fast response when they are unable to kill the offending intruder they're responding to with any degree of certainty?
