Marignon is a prety straightfoward nation;

Flaming Arrow crossbows as your basic army,
Royal Guard as front line tanks,
Flagellents as flankers, secondary support,
lots of fire mages,
some assorted infantry to taste.

Flagellants are easily a top-5 sacred (imo). They have two attacks, low resources/cost (almost free), can be recruited in any castle. You can easily make armies that contain hundreds of F9 flagellants, that will be decent against virtually every target. It's hard to think of another sacred unit per cost that has the Flagellant's sheer offensive potential.

The only thing about Flagellants is that they can't be on the front line; you have to have a screen of cavalry/infantry to soak up spells and arrow fire to allow them to close.
