Kailasa VS Lanka

[K]

I ran a quick test of 10 turns of gold-equivalent:

atavi archers, yogi (Mind Burn), warriors, awake pretender casting Flaming Arrows then summoning skeletons/dead, prophet casting 2 * courage then banishment,

versus

50 N9E9 Palankashas with a prophet casting bless then smite, imprisoned god.

Lanka won, with about 10 losses. Probably could have gone with less yogi (I made 10), they just made the Palankas mad.

I probably would have used meatshields of markata. The Def 14 and low costs means that the Rakshasa will actually kill them slower than the armored Bandar, and cost a whole lot less.

Also, rather than enchantment 4, I'd aim for Evocation 5. If that pretender had been spamming Shadow Blast and instead of Yogis you toss down the E3 or W3 guys, I think you'd have seen more Lanka deaths.
