On using poison cloud units...

[Ironhawk]

Pairing undead with poisoners is good I agree. But Pythium doesnt have any access to them? I can't recall offhand but I dont remember them having any intrinsic death magic in thier mage/priests.

Which other units are immune to poison? Certainly none of the pythium regulars are and the Ctis have only 50% resist which is useless since they will die if they get poisoned anyway. If they had like 75-80 some of them might survive I suppose.

Additionally, getting a decent amount of undead together (except if you are Ermor or Ctis/Tombs in which case you lose the immediate BogBeasts anyway) is not something you can't do from the get-go. Am I mistaken about that?

Archers might be a complement to a poison cloud unit cause they could stay out of the way. But I am talking here about Ctis and Pythium, who pretty much dont have archer units. I guess I could get some indy archers or something but... really why bother?
