Firstly, you said giants can replace archers, yeah, they can, but too slow to kill albowtross, I plenty sure that 5 archers kill faster than 1 gaint
Secondly, you said "enemy decides to micro" (lol) and send his archers OVER my speartons, that is surely suicide, I will call my speartons to kill those archers
And for other points I don't quite understand, can you tell me more, or tell me more clearly?
lol, this tutorial is inspired by Buddy's magikill tutorial :P
I misspoke just a little, but that's what happens when you decide to type fast. Send his ALBOWTROSS over the speartons, not archidons the albowtross (Sending archidons straight to speartons to the point where the speartons are in melee range? That's just stupid, I pray nobody does this in the game). But your right about the archidons able to kill faster then the giant (although I'm pretty sure 3 archidons is enough to kill a whole albowtross) but simply I've seen albowtross masser's before that move their wounded albowtross to the back (this is where stunning comes in handy, stunning keeps em from moving to the back of the army before they die horribly. I've beaten a couple albowtrossian massers this way), now what I'm saying is he can move his army of albowtross over yours and take out those weak ones in the back, now you can move your units to the other side but he can split his albowtross army in half to cover both sides of your spearton shield wall. I said archidons may not be the ONLY thing needed to destroy albowtross (that's not saying that archidons can't be used, but you don't have to use just them), giants are good helpers and good supporter's in both ground and air assault (Giants if I remember correctly kill albowtross in two shots). They shouldn't be used for your main army no but certainly a tertiary army or a third part of your army.
My current thoughts: Really, he didn't say to himself "oh this is surely just a typing error, I'm sure he meant albowtross and is not stupid enough to really mean archidon. Especially after the sentence afterwards states that he is talking about albowtross" Oh well I barely know him and that's probably his sense of humor.
He's got a magikill with all spells and other units that threaten your very existence, you got swordwrath/archidons/speartons. Something tells me you may kill the magikill but your going to suffer quite a bit, this is where 1-2 shadowrath with shinobi level 2 comes in handy, naturally people summon 1-2 magikill. 3 if they think its necessary, however mainly 1-2. ANYWAY my point is you may want to have these power houses sitting in the back just in case your foe decides to summon a couple magikill. That way he doesn't destroy your swordwrath army just as it shows in the eighth picture showing buddylucky threatening your swordwrath to run away. If that guy had at least a single shadowrath level 2 then that magikill would no longer threaten the beauty known as the swordwrathian unit. Now you can use shadowrath in two ways, seek and destroy in which you just rampage towards the enemy base and destroy everything on every run or hidden weapons in which you keep in the back so your foe does not know you have em and then when the timing is right send em out for a surprise attack.
I'm sorry for spitting all over your Mona Lisa (your tutorial thread) but I'm stating my opinion.
What the guy was doing in the pic from what I was he just simply shooting at your speartons blindly, not even attempting to take those archidons in the back.
Now I know what you say on everything else is true, the castle are stupid enough to target ONLY the first they see. And this is actually a genius idea that I've used before.
Your tutorial here has quite a bit of strategy that works well but just 6 archidons and a spearton wall aren't going to get you far when the enemy decides to protect his albowtross with an upgraded giant. There is flaws with every strategy know that simply because all strategies aren't perfect, but when a tutorial thread is made expect both people stating counter attacks and ways to increase upon the strategy.
