LA Ermor Questions
Been playing late age Ermor in an MP game, and while I am doing well in the early going, I have tons of questions that will instruct me for the late(r) game.
1) How good are wailing ladies? They seem like expensive summons, and as of yet, I have not gotten any. Is the death attack and AoE; what is the range?
2) Has anyone tried soul gate? What types of troops do you get and how many of them? I start with the assumption that it's a bit like the Ry'leh void gate in terms of randomness of output.
3) What are generally considered the better summons? I see lictors as OK, perhaps very nice if combined with the item that lets you get two additional lictor summons with the 'revive lictor' summon. Wraith senator seems to trump arch bishops for the additional 2 death gems once you get high enough conjuration. Dusk elders and spectators are staples for me, although summoning slows down as you find indy sites (minimal for me so far), plus have other uses for death gems. Any really good commanders of forces (high undead leadership and good MR/etherealness)?
4) Battle magic - there are some obvious choices e.g. darkness, rigor mortis, but what other options have people found to be effective? What are specific tactics for leader composition to minimize weaknesses (mindless troops) and maximize strengths?
5) Tactics for effectively managing army gathering??
Thanks in advance for some good replies.
