Golden Age Arcoscephale

Well I do recall saying that I didn't think they needed a boost at all, Zen. You seem to favor them more than I, but I think we're agreed that a strong, unroutable national trampler would be a little too strong.

That's exactly what you can make them. Unbreakable, 20 Prot, Air Shielded, Lucky, Ethereal Trampling Crew with decent MR. That is one of Arco's strengths.

And those 5 knights buffed by Inquisitors? It's hard for me to imagine a scenario where chariots charge free into any decent MP player's backfield without first meeting some kind of mounted reistance.

Buffed by Inquisitors? Meaning with Sermons and Fantatisims? Or do you mean Grand Masters, with Luck and Ethereality?

It's happens quite a bit for me. They might meet resistance some of the time, but this isn't a flaw in the Chariots, but a flaw in your opponent. Chariots move fast enough and over infantry to get to a back row quite quickly. My only issue is their fatigue, which when I play GE I circumvent by making sure I can at least a few priestesses casting Relief.
