Re: Trivia: How do you kill this unit?
Even better, just equip several guys with the black bows. I don't think it gives a MR check for the feeblemind.

Give a thug a pair of the E10 hammers that crush constructs. That might work.

yeah, that's a good one
the gate cleaver also is a great weapon in this circumstance - a few thugs w/ good MR should take him down.

Re: Trivia: How do you kill this unit?
A dominion kills worth going for anyways... Or at least go preaching in that province with priests of at least level 2. Click on their hitpoints to see how many are due to dominion.
Even if you don't dom kill, you'll make the sphinx more vulnerable, lowering a variety of stats.
Edit: isn't there a low-level earth weapon that does extra damage to inanimate beings?

Re: Trivia: How do you kill this unit?
The horror marking worked exceptionally well for me in a game where a player had a SC Shedu. It took a little while for him to die, but once he was gone, it was well worth the effort .

Etheral bows work on the sphinx.

Re: Trivia: How do you kill this unit?
Theres a hammer, in the earth path, I think its called "Crusher" or something similar. I think the description implies it does bonus damage to undead and construct units or something..

Re: Trivia: How do you kill this unit?
Based on the title of this thread I thought it was going to be a challenge. Oh well maybe next time.
