I dislike most Drakes, the worst being Cave Drake IMHO : expensive, slow, clumsy in battle, usually dying from exhaustion...

The drakes and the seasonal spirits.

The Last one are just a few units for a priencly price. Cost/use ratio is very low even in season.

Its a way better to invest in good SC instead of crappy troops. At least in the start of the game. Later there are better troops to cast then the spirits.

Personally, I love cave drakes for early Ulm expansion. They are awesome for soaking up indy missles, and cavalry charges. Even with a handful of afflications, their role as a pin cushion is unparalleled.

I have trouble picturing anyone raising Soulless or Longdead Warriors with a ritual spell, even if you do get 20 or 30 of them at a time. As a reanimation they're... well they're free. That's about all that can be said for them.

I think the wort summon is probably the corpse man. He's not much more than a stronger soulless.

Now your going to set me off. Since anything "worst" or "weak" is my target zone. While others concentrate on testing "best" I like to test "worthless" and find new uses. I often can.
