advice Caelum vs Marverni

Defense helps against trampling, so massed bare chested Ambibate warriors might work, but I don't have specific experience with this situation, just conjecture.

Paralyze is a good spell against mammoths, but I guess you don't have it yet.

Boar Warriors would not be good choice IMO, few numbers and they die quickly.

They have yet to reach my capital, they are one province away. I have no pretender at this time. I went for scales and a nature 9 bless instead. I am soo far away from getting any useful spells its not funny. recruited a researcher nearly every turn, but i still dont have anything to show for it, its only turn 9.

I have been getting the max Boar Warriors every turn, they have been useful, but i need more of them.

Nature 9 blessed Boar Warriors are not good against big tramplers. Pretty sure regen does not help and berserking actually hurts.

Cavalrys size and defence can help, as can the cheapest ranged weapon you can get(hits=morale checks).

Berserking stops you routing and allows you to hit hrder and more consistently. However without some chaff mixed in the low defence will kill you.

Boar warriors are expensive and have bad defence so they are trampled easy. Id either use the Cavalery as they can evade the trample, or just mass cheap infantry (the type without armour, as if they get trampled they die even with the armor) in hope they survive 1 turn and then can strike back.

Javelins. Lots and lots of javelins.
