Default Re: I have a question about Satyrs

After playing around a little more, it looks like I have to eat my words. Unarmored Satyrs _do_ have a use!

Those with Javelins are quite effective against independents during early expansion. While independent LI might be better, you can't build them right off. Those Javelins really pack a punch, and if you're carefull the tacAI won't target your Satyrs -- so their low protection and morale don't matter. Of course, one slip and your Satyrs are massacered, but this doesn't happen often against the predictable independents.

This tactic may also make for effective raiding in the mid-late game, where Satyr's stealth would make them far outclass LI.
