   - **Skelespam variants and fatigue lines:** These generally overlap – and essentially have mages spamming raise dead, horde of skeletons, and overwhelming an army. Relief/Rigor Mortis/Quagmire/Darkness complement this and 3/4 of them are in enchantment so its an easy combo to reach   - **Skelespam variants and fatigue lines:** These generally overlap – and essentially have mages spamming raise dead, horde of skeletons, and overwhelming an army.

   - **Army thugs:** Often – midgame battles are won by small squadrons of ‘super-elite’ commanders, holding say a GSS and a couple defensive items. The reason this is so effective is buffs/stats tend to have an exponential effect, so having a better weapon and some better gear makes an otherwise annoying sacred much harder to deal with   - **Army thugs:** Often – midgame battles are won by small squadrons of ‘super-elite’ commanders, holding say a GSS and a couple defensive items.

In higher level competitive play - you'll see a lot more variants on this. Usually, they need items from at least const5 to function at this level into proper armies.
   - **Remotes ramping up:** As armies get bigger and battles more important, remotes become more disruptive. Be it Mind Hunt or disease demons giving a defender fits, or a well placed call of the winds knocking out a connection tile and slowing an army – remotes go from being a fringe tool earlier on to a powerful utility knife.   - **Remotes ramping up:** As armies get bigger and battles more important, remotes become more disruptive.

   - **Amulet of the dead scouts:** This sounds like a meme but is very much a thing. 3-4 scouts can take out PD in a province holding amulets (or the comparable G item mirror of trapped illusions) and this gives all D/G nations a source of raiding – sometimes this being their only source of stealth.   - **Amulet of the dead scouts:** This sounds like a meme but is very much a thing. 3-4 scouts can take out PD in a province holding amulets (or the comparable G item mirror of trapped illusions) and this gives all D/G nations a source of raiding – sometimes this being their only source of stealth.
