For some reason I simply can't bring myself to use the human troops. They're too goody-two-shoes for me.

It's not just the aesthetics, they're just too.. tanky and slow. I prefer fast and hard hitting. Maybe because I always loved the warlock in the heroes series.

the paladin is different. it's a very very useful unit, no matter how far in the game you are. they don't move too much and they don't get to kill too much due to low speed, but they can be used as a support unit.

Indeed, paladin is more of a support unit with second wind and prayer. A great help on no loses battle.

I know, but they are probably best used for those who want no-losses. Myself I am playing with losses (although not many, I've already got the 3rd tactician medal and I'm level 12.

But if you want to play with no loss on higher difficulty I guess they are mandatory. They just don't suit my playstyle.

On a side note, I though Archmagi were always suposed to spawn in the bell tower in Scarlet wind's graveyard. Anyone who wants archmagi, can try there. Other spawn places are the mage's tower in debir, the mage's tower in Elon, mage tower in verona and the temple near Demenion's castle on the town square with the mana fountain in Verona.

Um... Dryads? I haven't picked them up in AP, but they were literally the strongest unit for most battles in TL. Sleep a large number of units on the battlefield, phantom them perhaps for more, no retal on units they attack... they are like the omega unit of doom if used correctly.

Ah, my Anga's Ruby army: Sprites, Dryads, Fairies Demonesses and Evil beholders. Pounded the tar out of anything... except dragons. OH lord not dragons. But man, it was like easy mode everywhen else.
