It's my theory as well, and it has worked fine so far. When the thug is quickened,
and holding a frostbrand, you'd be amazed how quickly the offending fliers rout.
Except that I have him on hold for two or three turns, depending on who attacks, so
that he does not go after chaff, and attacks the overflying/flanking units instead.
