I think against Vanheim and Helheim, it'd be great. The radiant heat of any of the units can knock the glamour off, and without that they're not much better than any other nations units, and certainly not better than your infantry toe to toe. Those giants are tough though.

I'm just throwing this out there, but you know who might be better against Niefelheim though? Yomi. I noticed that Bonds of Fire and later Prison of Fire works pretty well against regular units, and it requires a high morale to break free, and Frighten, Panic, and later Terror are all available to them somewhat easily through a Hannya, or other mages, and they're also all from Thaum. Against the smaller armies of giants, locking them down and lowering their morale so they can't escape and peppering them with arrows and flames from the Aka-Oni might be worth a try. They'd at least have to bring more than just blessed giants to deal with that I'd think and may be enough to stop a rush in MP.

But I usually stick to SP so maybe there's something I'm not seeing there.
