Clergymen: I FINALLY found a use for them!

**imnothere** · 12-06-2007, 03:58

it would be cool if clergymen can combine the effect of both - conversion by faith or conversion by a BIG BIG mace.

*should* makes the players less likely to use them as pincushion for arrows.

(*should* because personally, i thought that it is funnier to see those monks turn into porcupines)

LOL... there's been some great suggestions here. Keep em coming, I've learnt a lot already. I'm gonna hire some more clergymen! and put them on the walls of evey city, for a start...

They don't do good on the walls, i tried that because I figured with 13 attack they could bash the enemy militias as they come over ladders 1 by 1, all the while inspiring the troops down below, but they failed miserably as every casualty is 5% and soon 10% of their strength. Maybe 2 or 3 guarding one section of wall would work.

Clerymen! Hot Dawg! I can hardly waite to finish my Britania campaign so I can start a Teutonic one. Thanks for the information. More C/A brilliance. Do they perchance perform Gregorian Chants? There will soon be a thread about how real men can win with only clergymen (and a few elephant units). Aach, if only the Scots had a few of these lads to put with the pikes.

Umm, do they actually have inspiration bonus to troops around them? It's not written on the unit card. I always thought it's a bug that they forgot to write that. Without inspiration, they are like Fanatics from vanilla, only with the unit size of 40 instead of 120, which make them pretty useless.
