Atlantis can also use poisoned armor to their advantage against devils, imps, and fiends that attack with claws. Ulm troops can probably fight devils OK, since their armor is hard to penetrate with no weapons...

Devils do have Trident, which is dam-7 IIRC, and long enough to negate the poison armor.

Devils have a tail attack also, length zero, which gets them poisoned.

The cheapest defense vs any high-defense unit is just a wack of archers. Devils have only 8 prot so even a normal short bow will wound them (tho admittedly it will take several arrows to bring down a single devil). So just buy hordes of indy archers. Expect the player controlling the devils to attack your archers and just split them up or have enough to manage.
