FQ is a nature entry into air. Plus elf archers.

Honestly, I think FQ are a pretty crappy deal, for the most part.
They give nature nations like Pangea Fog Warriors, which they desperately, desperately need once Mass Protection starts to not be good enough.

Then she isn't doing much healing if she's being used for that, is she?

It all depends on what you need to do, but if you can't recruit healers and you need a durable, reliable 100 healer, the Mother of Serpents is the way to go.

Fog Warriors? As per Edi's comment, that is not Healing either. I didn't say the FQ is useless - but they are a crappy deal for a Healer.

I think most healers are crappy deals for healers, because honestly, what do you need healers for anyways? Maybe elephants? Or if your SC gets a bad break? Maybe to unfeeble-mind some of your retarded mind hunters? Or to fight off old age for crones for MA Man.

But really the game would need some cheap summons for healers to get that effect out of them.

I thought you couldn't heal old age afflictions?

Gift of Health and the Chalice can heal old-age afflictions. that's it.

Another good time to have healers is when you're fighting MA C'tis. That can save all sorts of grief.

Experienced troops tend to eventually accumulate afflictions. Once you remove those afflictions from the quality stuff that has between 2 and 4 stars, they start looking all kinds of unpleasant from the enemy's point of view.

"Haha, he's only sending normal chaff against me!"
*whack*
"OWWW!"

Assuming you can protect those troops, of course. This has more significance in SP games than MP, I guess, but the impact can be pretty big in SP at least. It is even more pronounced for nations that rely heavily on sacreds, especially durable sacreds. Such as Lanka, Niefel, Fomoria and a few others.
