Soothsayers?

I trashed soothsayers as soon as I got demonologists.

True, I tended to leave them in reserve while doing the tougher battles against undead and take inquisitors instead (which suck at everything else). And I also love demonologists.

The problem is, demonologists were very rare in my game and couldn't keep up with my leadership. And even though the soothsayers' heal ability is crap and the blizzard just average, they are surprisingly good even as a single-purpose shooter unit, especially against ghosts and skeletons.

I used them on and off until the very end.
