Who else do they have?
It's a rather uninspired army. Effective, but uninspired. Especially if you run into a dragon. I only managed to defeat green and red dragons thanks to the Incubus.
P.S. You'd better tell us about the initial tactics when the hero has three free slots.
At the beginning, I take a Gargoyle and a Warrior for the main hero mage. If I hire a secondary hero to cover the rear and catch enemy heroes, I take a Satyr + Mage or Warrior, depending on whether I'm hiring a Duke or an Advisor. Although I prefer the Duke, he's more appealing.
