Default Re: Caelum questions

Caelum is a bit hard in the beginning as their troops are made out of thin paper so there is a bit of a critical mass effect going on but once you have a pile of them you can cast wind guide and they become pretty efficient.

1: 30+ caelum archers (I use the weak ones as the 9 resource type doesn't seem to have any more survivability) and as many seraphs as you can get. Archers on shoot closest pepper/block while mages false horror/lightning stuff.

2+3?: if you refer to flying melee types, screw em. They are weak in everyway and I have barely ever seen them do more than fly up to enemy, all miss, get poked back, flee and spread themselves alll over.

4: a couple and as many as possible. Seem to work very well in stacks of 10+

5: I never buy them so..

6: When running right it's 0% losses for me and 100% for them. If ground troops can get a significant body of soldiers in contact with my archer blocks it usually turns out ugly for me. My goal is to have 20+ false horrors a turn getting in the way of that happening.

7: Never had a game where it wasn't necessary to have secondary leaders running around picking up retreated troops and the 1-2 x-bow men various provinces make.
