A dominion kills worth going for anyways... Or at least go preaching in that province with priests of at least level 2. Click on their hitpoints to see how many are due to dominion.

Even if you don't dom kill, you'll make the sphinx more vulnerable, lowering a variety of stats.

Edit: isn't there a low-level earth weapon that does extra damage to inanimate beings?

The horror marking worked exceptionally well for me in a game where a player had a SC Shedu. It took a little while for him to die, but once he was gone, it was well worth the effort .

Etheral bows work on the sphinx.

Theres a hammer, in the earth path, I think its called "Crusher" or something similar. I think the description implies it does bonus damage to undead and construct units or something..

Based on the title of this thread I thought it was going to be a challenge. Oh well maybe next time.

I don't know, is there any unit that you can't think of a way to kill these days?

As a peculiar question, if a player wished for the "Eater of Gods" horror, could another player horror-mark that horror, and what would happen?

Assuming of course, the Eater of Gods doesn't decide to go right back to the void?

True... but I was hoping someone found one which would be at least somewhat of a challenge.

NTJedi: The challenge is always relative to your game experience. I doubt I could even come up with something that would take you longer than 10s to figure out 3 strategies to kill. You, on the other hand, could take 10s to come up with something I would have a hard time figuring out what to do.
