How interesting. Is it really harder to deal with 20 monks per week than 20 paladins per week? Considering also the penalty for ranged attacks, twice the reduced damage, the lack of charge, and a bunch of spells that allow you to disable them without much fuss?

Which of these heroes do you prefer to play as?
I'd like to see how you'd deal with 80 monks on week 6 by simply overwhelming them with numbers (and knights usually train light, so you can't avoid damaging them)... I'm probably not talking about games on week 55.
P.S. But not longer than it takes to kill paladins, who pose a much more serious threat.

I regret that there isn't a special unit for the Incas; it would be devastating.
I actually like Dugald; I would easily put him in first place. Axel in second, and Vitto in third, probably. You can start with Elaine, but it's more for getting money from peasants, and then you can choose a main hero from the tavern (you'll definitely find one of the first three). Laslo... Well, maybe for a quick game. I don't know about others, but I prefer armored infantry over zealots, even though they are weaker, they are very helpful against archers. And armored infantry are not a strike force, so I wouldn't take Laslo either. But that's according to my tactics; maybe I'm wrong.
Axel won't give a significant advantage to the Knights.
That's true, but when there are many Knights (if you actively train them), they become a crucial stack on their own, and Axel reinforces this advantage. Although, it might not be as beneficial as focusing on some other stack.
You see, if there are many Knights, they will justify themselves anyway, and if you also have an enhanced stack of Pikemen, the advantage becomes even greater. It all depends on what you are aiming for in terms of upgrades.
Lattniks aren't a strong offensive unit, so Laslo wouldn't take them.

Мой ник транслитерируется по-разному, но я предпочитаю варианты Оот и Ооот.
Couldn't you make a couple of swordsmen into armored units, and the rest into zealots? o_O
