Default Suggestions please.

Hello, I'm about to get into it with Yomi as Lanka.

Now my blessing is 9w9s.

My research sucks, but I just need to buy time for storm.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Fire Arrows from hell is what I expect...

Not to mention banefire...

blood sabbath banishments could help you... a lot. even four of those b1h1 as slaves then a whole bunch of those b1x1h2 as masters should turn them into h4 masters and thats a LOT more powerful when slinging banishments.

and thats low research. I got schooled playing yomi when maverni hit me with communion banishments.

I'm thinking more of swarm and other means at this point.
I really hate blood communions, its simply just undependable.

A couple earthquakes and your undone.

Not the newest, but yeah. For a long time now the fatigue from sabbath slave or master has been 99-. (So, slaves still help a lot).

llama, I'm not sure if it's heartening to know there are still areas of CBM that you have yet to turn your care and attention to, or worrying that there are important changes (to gameplay) that CBM makes that you seem to be unaware of

And sadly, the AI will cast both sabbath slave and sabbath master unscripted, sometimes back to back.

The hit to fatigue can be quite a pain for mictlan.

I'm warming to cbm, that being said my local crowd plays vanilla...

But I'm getting storm this next turn...



I should have stated vanilla at the start, sigh, pharmacia...

Also, your slaves are pretty tough. If you have research, reverse commune personal regeneration onto the slaves. That way you can drain them a lot more.

Your cap only units can all cast thunderstrike during storm, and even easier during a blood communion. Storm also increases the chance of arrows missing and just disappearing.

The cap only demon troops get stronger by casting blood lust (which might also help demons on the other side so be careful).

Against large amounts of low quality troops, use bloodletting, esp if you have boosters communions and penetration boosters of any kind.

Life for a life and leech take care of any SC's Yomi might field.

Also, Storm demons. Expensive in mage time. But great as a unit.
