the all female elf team is certainly powerful. i played that in my last game, and it served me very well -- although be wary of magic resistant enemeis like black dragons.
in my current game, i'm trying a new tack because the druid's staff was in the first castle.
frog wife, druid's staff, and an all snake, sprite, druid army. what this means is that all the snakes get 150% to attack. royal snakes have +27 attack -- essentiallyd ouble damage. snakes and poison snakes have ~ +20 attack each. they all have no retaliation and better survivability than sprites and wood fairies.
I'm still at level 12 and am waiting to see how this army turns out. But up to this point it's been fantastic for a mage. I mainly sit around nuking waiting for the enemy to get to me, in any event. So the lack of mobility by the snakes doesn't really matter. and their first strike is a lunge in any case -- that stuns the enemy for a turn, in the case of snakes and marsh snakes, to boot.
