Aye, they come with one of the SC Pretenders, Kali I believe. Virtue, another SC comes with a Flambeu too. Good stuff if you are going up against EA Yomi.

Yep, the Kali. Davana's have similar weapons that affect mortals instead.

Yep, so the real issue is not what demonslaying weapons there are out there, but rather how many demonslaying options are available to enemy nations at different points of the game.

Given the late-game availability of battlefield-effect demon-smacking spells, using demons as chaff may not be a good idea, though I defer to those who have more experience as demon-handlers

Default killing demons

Yeah, autochthon, that's sort of my question I guess. I've heard people talk about the power of demons in late game, but I worry that these items specifically designed to hurt them would make them actually weak in late game. But having not played much, I don't have a great feel for how common these items are, or what the demon race can do to counter the counters.
