Bogarus Strat
I've recently been testing a new strategy with Bogarus. It uses an awake rainbow pretender with turmiol 3 cold 3 growth 3 luck 3 drain 1. What I've been doing is using the pretender to research the first 3 turns and building 3 of the level 3 priests. Then my fours smiters go out and and start exapanding, it works really well for the first year, sometimes I get a couple extra. With 6 smiters I just need a 30 man meat shield and then I usually have about 8 provinces at the end of the first year. I get a coupple mages to take up research slack around turn 5-6 and then send the pretender out to search for magic sites.
I've been research themeturgy and evocation to start and prevent rushes, although my priests do a great job at that. Smite is great LA for taking out the heavy calvery and nasty tramplers that Bogarus has problems with. It also lets me take a lower dominion because they spread it damn fast. What do you guys think of this strategy and where should I go for mid-late game?
