I want people to post strategies ( no matter how efficient you need to be) and also counters, if you comment on one, say what title (or if you want a new one, a non-existent title) and I will add (or make) it.

strategy 1

opening build

opening strategy

midgame
make an army of 2 giants, 8 albows, and 1 shadowrath /or (bieng debated)/ 6 spears, 5 albows, 2 mages, and 1 archer

final battle

endgame

This can be a beat the strategy above you thread :P

Anyways, ill just work with a population limit of 50, since that is the standard for matches and any more usually makes the same generic army. It would be nice if other people did so too.

6 Speartons, 5 Albowtrosses, 2 Magikill, and 1 Archidon.

So lets compare. My shinobi kills one of your magikill, then dies. Your down to one magikill now. You have 6 speartons too. and 5 albows. You can either attack me with your speartons, in which case your magikill is undefended, or block bolts with them, in which case my giants can attack your albows. Plus, you need to kill my giants first if you want to do anything to my air with those albows. I can use my albows to dodge poison, and get a few potshots at your albows while im at it. Of course, the magikill is a nusiance, and reduces my attacking time with the albows alot. But overall, I think my army would win. and giant animation cancel ftw lol:P

Let's see. I'll just let my army attack on its own, so I go for the Giants first. It's pretty hard to micro both your Albows and your Giants, so either your Albows are damaged or you lose most of the advantage of animation cancel Giant. I get the poison on the Giants, so that's a small advantage. I can also Electric Wall them, and harass your Albows. I don't know.

I was just joking about the animation cancel, and in a real fight I would most likely be controlling the albows, as the giants are there for just meatshielding. Anyways, If you let the speartons attack all on their own, then killing your magikill becomes alot easier. After a few hits, your magikill is dead, and then ill proceed on killing your albows, then sniping at your speartons.

Hey, we haven't decided if his opening is good

Is it just me, or are Albows really easy to meatshield? Every time I use them it's near impossible to target the units I want instead of the ones in the front.

You can VERY easily counter albows...

2 Ninjas, 8 spears, 2 merics, 10 archers.

Quote from THEFORCE

2 Ninjas, 8 spears, 2 merics, 10 archers.

Seriously? 10 Archers, 20 Swords, and you don't even get a single Magikill to kill all of it?

I agree!!

I avoid magikill well the majority of the time
