Default Re: Couple questions about demons and magic paths

Yeah, banishment is surprisingly painful against heavy troops even with a decent MR. The reason is because its got a large AOE, does AN damage, and is very, very easy to spam. Plenty of nations have at least H1 on their research mages, and indie priests are really easy to mass...so if each casting affects a few of your guys with AN damage it starts stacking up really fast if you don't have just swarms of guys (skellispam).

Heavy armour actually makes the situation worse as:
1. Troops cost more
2. It takes longer to get to close combat

I need to test how well +4 mr demon only holy spell works.

On the other hand, sacred unit with no less than 9 stages (forms) is hilariously overpowered ATM.
