I just versed an albow masser and I easily destroyed his army with 2 magikill, and some speartons in shield wall. The guy I versed also spammed swordwrath with rage, and I killed them with the speartons, while my magikill killed the albows with electric wall and explosions. I still lost the game though, because my mom came downstairs when I was destroying his statue, and I closed the window.

Hi reader,

Easy... mass Giants and Magikills... Magikills will kill them with blast, Giants will provide shelter and ranged support. For Chaos just rush to their statue or kill them using mass Giants.

Giant massing caused swordwrath massing, which caused albow massing, the way I see it.

Giants < Swords
Swords < Albow
Albow < Giants (with magikill)

Just make a variety of units, you'll reach a max population so much faster and be able to punish any force of that nature...

I'm pretty sure spear+ archer loses to mass albows. Say, 12 albows (48 pop) vs 8 speartons (24 pop) and 12 archidons (24 pop). I'm doing it based on pop. Who would win? I'm pretty sure the albows would win.

You would be correct.

Didn't we test this?

Spears and albows lost.

We did, and you meant speartons and archidons lost. Also, in my example I said earlier, it had more speartons and archidons than in our test.

arhidons do literally nil damage against albowtross. Shocking for me when I first found out.

LULULUL I use that glitch. They do damage to albow, but only IF they can hit it. If the albow goes a certain angle, the archidon cannot hit them.

But still, even if they do hit them, they still do very little damage. It took 4 archidon to kill one albowtross, and every arrow was hitting. Thats 350*4=1400(one hundred less than a giant) against $450 and 200 mana.
