Default Re: LA Agartha Advice Wanted

Blindfighters do have a pretty decent MR and more hit points than the average human. In many ways they're about equivalent to Helheim's Hirdmen except for the much higher resource cost and the encumbrance problem--higher protection but lower defense and no glamour. An E9 bless suits them pretty well.

I like to take a high death bless if I'm playing a nation with sacred mages. I'm not sure if it actually helps me all that much since many spells either kill units or leave them untouched, but it does at least give you the potential to be tricky. Try the above-mentioned earthquake trick when you're operating under a death bless; enemy mages will probably die and a fair number of the enemies that get damaged will be afflicted. I'm not sure afflictions are all that crippling to regular troops so who knows if it's worth it objectively, but death is the only bless that enhances a mage's destructiveness and I love battlemages, so there you go. (Plus I like being able to throw D9 Clouds of Death around on my pretender.)

Yes, sepulchrals are armored.
