Deathcurse is great when you're fighting against nations like Van or Helheim, where they have very strong but very expensive troops, and you can combine that deathcurse with other things like death weapons, fire weapons, medallions of vengeance, poison, etc. and insure that whether or not your troops do well on a battlefield, ultimately you win the war by way of attrition
