MA Marignon Advice Wanted

[chrispedersen]

I disagree - I might be wrong due to the vagaries of MP play. But I find a bless strategy with Marignon to be so effective its boring.

Try a F9W9, a F9W9Sx, or a F9W9Ax bless. Res -3, Magic -3
Misfortune -x as a start. Start with a high 7-9 Dominion works for me. With quickness, and numbers, I prefer NOT to have the air bless.

Flagellants are about the cheapest bless platform there is. The usual advice in Dominions is - take no casualties -and thats great advice.

But there are several mechanisms to that path - and one you rarely see: Crushing odds.

All sacreds have half maintenance cost - and with flagellants its essentially *nothing*. With flagellents the % boost you receive from your bless can easily make your unit 2-2.5 times as effective.

The ramp up with flagellants is so fast, that you can very very rapidly build a force that will sweep all indies before it.

Flagellants can get you a commanding early game position- which will then allow you to determine your mid and late game course
