FoB with f9w9b4 (or b9 if you like) can beat nearly any independants with 10 jags and some slaves to distract archers and/or lance equipped troops.

Re: My Mictlan strategy: okay, but needs work
Also some eagle warriors set to hold and attack (or just attack if you have alot of them) archers can help. To make the moloch a true indy smasher alone is very hard but with just 2 or 3 archers deployed very far back set to fire closest he is less likely to rout. Boots of quickness (or water 1 if you have points) really help as do reinvig. Just script him to fire darts, fire darts, fire darts, fire darts, fire darts, cast spells (replace first darts with quickness if he has w1) and scale up to falling fires later on. Th reason for fire darts is extra shots with each level.

Re: My Mictlan strategy: okay, but needs work
Man, w9 is such a powerful bless. I was going to try and argue that e9 would be better because I believe protection is better than defence (in most cases), but that quickness bless is just too useful. Also, the reinvig bonus would be wasted on Mictlan's lightly armored troops. They don't live long enough to use it.
I guess others explained it well already, but f9 blessed Jaguar warriors are not good for taking on larger armies, because they are vulnerable. They are good for killing things quickly, but you still need a large number of them. All it means is you pick a watchtower as your castle, so you can start building lots of them. I prefer the eagle warriors, myself, but I'm always getting the Air Priest or the Quetzicoatl heroes to lead them into battle, because of my high luck.

Extra protection would be worthless on jags/eagles anyway due to their low base prot.

Re: My Mictlan strategy: okay, but needs work
I recently made a f9w9a6 mictlan bless with horrible scales (can be a little worse) but I didn' spread my dominion  .
Even eagle warriors kick *** they attack archers and routers exterminating what jaguars left.

Re: My Mictlan strategy: okay, but needs work
Yeah, it's true that Mictlan is set up beuatifully for a bless strategy. Their holy units are cheap enough that you can crank them out with poor scales. Imagine what it will be like in Dom3 when the economy is doubled...

Keep in mind sacreds are still limited by dominion strength and building another fort to pump sacreds is much harder.
