Some beginner gameplay and strategies questions

I didn't catch that he was talking about vanilla.

Bow of War on a Sleeper is still a waste. 2 Bows of War on 2 scouts would do more damage and be cheaper. Thunder Bows are pretty good at picking off tough Ermorian mages while still being able to clear a square per turn, though not so much in vanilla. Simply to butcher masses of undead, a flambeau is a good idea too, to cast high precision Holy Pyre.

For a Sleeper to be worth it as a sniper, he has to either really leverage his precision or both that and his strength.
