Lifelong Protection Spam

LLP is indeed quite useful. The imps have quite decent stats also. Dom 2 has some issues with the low maximum unit number but in Dom 3 those issues will hopefully be gone.

If in Dom 3 FotA is still as it is imagine massproducing LL Protections

. 10 Blood for a LL Protection

. If you use it on something stealthy you can thus avoid flames from the sky and the like.
If you would theoretically manage to build 100 LL protections e.g. i can imagine little that works well vs. it.
Optimally would be as SC pointed out be Jotun Scouts as carriers

. They wouldn't die so easily vs. Wrathful skies and similiar stuff. And 200 (or 400 with quickness) Imps a turn should kill a lot

.

i havnt noticed quickness effecting the imps, and something that really kicks *** is vampire o****s with them (they raid a province and can summon vamps in it+they dont need skullface to raise skeletons. not to mention they are hard to kill and good fighters.

Don't just summoned units from items not work well as they can make the entire lot break? Ie: wouldn't this be the same as taking a moloch solo?

dont know, ive done this with solo guys before and even when all imps die they seemed to stick around.

That is because it generates a new (unrouted one) each turn. If the ll pact holder gets paralysed or falls below 100 fatigue though, the stream stops, which can lead to some nasty die-on-reteat cases.

Yeah - I think that when all the imps (etc) have fled, _before_ the check is made for the commander, the new critter generate.

Then, the commander check is made, _then_ the new imps die or flee, but the commander check has already been done. It's all in the sequence of events.

Also : If all auto-summoned critters _die_ vice routing, the commander doesn't route. The CB mod thus made various auto-summoning pretenders (other than Moloch who is uber no matter what) more viable by giving the summoned critters 30 morale - if they never rout, they never cause retreat.
