It's not a huge deal really. Kohen Gadols aren't any good as battle casters, and neither are Kohens. As Thugs/SCs, you just need to save the bless for the end of the buff cycle, and include a bit more reinvigoration. Gath can be pretty interesting with a F9/N9 bless, and the Lord of the Desert Sun as the ideal chasis for it. The sacred giant troops are pretty worthless with that, but Levites, while still nothing special become plenty good enough for expansion. You'd focus a lot more on the blood economy and get to Se'irim soonest. Se'irim with F9/N9 are absolute murder machines, with 9 high strength attacks per square. Berserk+7 on top of the fire bless means all those attacks are going to hit, and hit incredibly hard, and post berserk protection plus high hp, the regen, and 3 per square means they are unlikely to die before slaughtering everything in front of them.
