The unit with the best price-to-performance ratio.

Just to belittle. :D I even had to test it. Phoenixes kill 2 Archangels. They deal 3 damage in retaliation and 3 with a regular attack, leaving the Archangels with 7 health, and so on. In short, the diagnosis is this: there is no chance for any monsters against a doubled number of Phoenixes. There simply isn't! There might be a chance for Bears, but only with very high initial stats.

Em, what does "no chance" mean? So, 7 Archangels are left against 14 birds, so what? But what about the Archangels' morale, for example, +1? So, not everything is so simple, in any case, there is no "overpowering" of other 7th-level monsters by Phoenixes, except, of course, Necrodrakes. I didn't want to belittle, I just want more balanced assessments from such a knowledgeable and experienced player.
