Here's an excellent strategy for scaring the heck out of your opponent. Quickly capture the center tower with 4 Swordwrath, and boost your economy the best you can. There's no need for mana, all you need are Archidons and giants. Make a few Archidons (or a lot, if you want) for defense, and ward of enemies while you keep boosting your economy. Make as many giants as you want, but know when it's the right time to attack. Not too soon, because a couple of speartons can overpower a sole giant, but not too late, because they probably have some anti-giant defenses. Then, go to the upgrades inside the castle and get Giant Growth I and II. I GUARANTEE that you will have some VERY entertaining results. In no time, your opponent should be cursing you and calling you a hacker, no doubt, and the statue will be obliterated in a matter of seconds.

This strategy gets some good results in low levels, but is destroyed by

1. 2-3 Giants and a whole bunch of Merics (healing is useful)
2. All Speartons (wait until you attack, then just charge your statue)
3. Magikill with tanks (never underestimate the power of an Electric Wall on a a slow unit)
4. A balanced army slightly modified to counter the strategy (Giants to tank, Spears for more tank, Magikill and Albowtross to tear apart armor)

In other words, this strategy will get you to 1600s, maybe 1700s, but then you'll fall off. Slightly better than Spearton massing, but you will still lose.

This would be a OK strategy for the 1300's or rating, but 2 giants with lots of albows and merics can overthrow this. They can also rush your statue if your on a medium or long map. EDIT: 2 or 3 giants in your army isn't bad but usefull. www.stickempires.com/play?replay=replay2193118&version=1.69

2 giants being micro'd and a bunch of albows, plus some merics and magikill will tear through giant mass. Probably much faster excluding the albows.

I like electric wall, but the fact that it is the easiest spell to dodge ever (unless it's lagging, once lost a game because my lagging archers wouldn't move out of a wall) it really limits its use.
