Opinions on Caelum (MA and other)

[Kuritza]

1.They have magical weapons, and they are effective against a solo thug taking their provinces.

Are they? I wonder how many Iceclads will be killed by a properly equipped bane lord. Probably as many as needed - sometimes a simple vine shield works wonders.

3. They are effective when set to attack archers or rearmost enemies or large enemy monsters or flying units.

How come? With so-so combat stats, with no formation bonus, they just attack, suffer losses and rout. May be used as a diversion, and thats it.

Caelum is fine as is if the Elephant exploit is fixed.

Karthage must be destroyed.
