Default Re: HELP: Ermor, Broken Empire (Middle Age)

Vestals make great Death bless units. 9d4s makes them powerful, and they are quite resistant to banishing. Censors are interesting melee units but somewhat less versatile, best used against priest heavy nations like Pythium.

THE MOST ESSENTIAL thing you do as Broken Empire is make a Grand Thaumaturg a prophet. On turn 2. This lets you make 6 longdead horsmen for free every turn hence, something that is essential as BE as you lack any sort of recruitable national cavalry.

Vestals really are very good, with high defense as well as etherial. They make great flanking units, and will generally survive in melee.
