As an interested observer: Against masses of Maenads, Maverni can greatly improve its gross national product with by significantly increasing Blade Wind Based Maenadic Sashimi production.

Yeah, it's probably a better option than Master Enslave... If you Master Enslave, not only you have to spend a non-negligeable amount of astral pearls, but you are also stuck with hundreds of Maenads on your hands.

I did know about the gift from heaven spam (first thing that came to mind looking at their rooster), but I keep confusing that spell name for Rain of Stone for some reason.

I never tried the Strength Boosts + Javelin concept, but that definitively sound promising... I'll definitively have to experiment with that against the AI. Thanks for the hint! And maybe we'll see it in action in this Let's Play too... Although I'm still rooting for Pangaea first and foremost.

As in "free zero-upkeep chaff who can siege castles well"? Sounds great.

Maenads count for .1 of their normal strength in a seige.

Their dancing naked and clawing at the walls isn't as effective as you'd think.....

Where/Who on Earth did you get that info from?

Maenads can repair walls, or tear them down, just as well as any other unit in the game with 10 strength can. That is why forts full of Pans are well known to be a nightmare to siege.
