Yeah, honestly your guide is pretty comprehensive. The only reason I made any suggestions is because without them there's really not much reason to post.

Hey...nice guide...uh....cya!

Thanks for writing this guide, K. I had been looking for one on Lanka, and this one is very helpful indeed!

This is a fantastic guide. One of the best I have ever seen. Congratulations.

One suggestion to make it over the top amazing: some screen shots of your troop placement during inital expansion, and maybe a couple of your uber armies (with sub-screen shots of some of the leaders that make the armies go).

Great guide.

Its a totally comprehensive guide to playing Lanka. So much that I can't think of anything to add and lots of new ideas for me to use...

This is nice guide indeed. Would be great if someone added this to this Lazy_Perfectionists list of guides:

This is a very useful guide thank you! Before this guide i have never been patient enough to successfully play Lanka. Now that I have read this I had a really fun game with them and I have really discovered how to have fun!

I think this is a great aspect that Dominions 3 always has something new to offer!

Flight is a pretty nice spell for the Raksharajas, I think, at least early on. It's like a sniper attack versus those indies who have their commanders loitering around archers. Bless - Flight (make sure he is enough far away from any troops!) - Attack enemy archers. Tadah. I wouldn't use it against Hoburg Crossbows though, and it's not 100% risk free, but I like it. Much more effective than plain lightning bolt.

Also, for Anusaras, I sometimes make them in the very start when I can't affrod that many tiger heads. I put them on the flanks with orders of attack archers or attack rear. They are pretty fast and then to reach the archers/rear pretty fast. With the tiger heads on the front, it's a pretty tight trap and kills those "medieaval" infantry & archer indies dead. Maybe not world's most effective tactic, but I like it too, so the donkey heads are not completely useless IMO.
