Nations with weakest troops

Well I guess thats one good thing that I'm in the middle of a team with no fighting. But then my stealth units seem rather pathetic from what I see and are of no real use.
Which brings me to another problem. In a situation when your inside a circle with limited expansion. What the frell are someone like a Bogarus suppose to do if enemies break through to them. Or can pure mage armies actually do some damage in battles.

Quite often late game battles are pure mage and/or SC affairs.

Let me give you some ideas:


Research Thau 2: Blood 2. Then your offensive spell of choice.

Some I'm partial to include, paralyze, stellar cascades, paralyze.

Make a communion. Cast communions slaves, communion masters, Blood Master.

Cast Power of the spheres. when your fatigue is high cast relief.
Otherwise spam the offenseive spell of your choice. If you are in the middle of a donut of your allies - you should be in gravy - you have the best upside of any la researcher.
