-Jotunheim's cold preference clearly shows in their troop line up. Most recruitable units come with a natural cold resistance and snow move, which gives a sizeable strategic advantage while fighting in cold. Worth noting is also the inherent weakness to shock for all giant troops. While Jotunheim's mages and communions can mitigate this weakness with ??Elemental Fortitude??, the lack of significant {{misc:magic:earth.png?14&nolink}}earth and {{misc:magic:air.png?14&nolink}}air magic leaves troops vulnerable.+Jotunheim's cold preference clearly shows in their troop lineup.

-Their troops break down into two branches. On one hand, Jotunheim has access to hard-hitting, durable size 4 giants. On the other hand there are the Vaetti, who offer a high attack density as they are only size 1. Both branches complement each other and in general give the best result when combined, as the giants can deliver damage even through tough protection, while the Vaetti increase the overall attack density. However, the non-wolf riding Vaetti lack snow move and are only map move 10, whereas even the most heavily-armored Jotuns are map move 12 //and// have snow move. This means that Vaetti (on foot) can significantly slow down Jotunheim's armies, at least in friendly territory.+Their troops break down into two branches.

 The priests are only mediocre, as Jotunheim has no access to {{path>H3}} priests and, while not expensive they come without any special properties, although they are quite durable compared to human priests. The priests are only mediocre, as Jotunheim has no access to {{path>H3}} priests and, while not expensive they come without any special properties, although they are quite durable compared to human priests.
-Similar their commanders do not stand out, as the highest leadership commanders only have 80. Notable though is the ??Jotun Jarl?? for being an {{path>H1}} Priest as well as a decent leader, enabling him to lead smaller groups of sacred units early on.+Similarly, their commanders do not stand out, as the highest leadership commanders only have 80.

-Jotunheim's mages are more focused on sorcery paths, gaining good access to Death, Nature and Blood Magic and some Astral, while the ??Jotun Skratti?? adds strong water magic. Skrattir are also the star unit when it comes to the commanders of Jotunheim, as they perform very well in different roles. They are shapeshifters and gain 10% regeneration in werewolf form, which makes them very good thugs with some equipment. This ability also enables turbo communions, which is one of the strong suits of Jotunheim.+Jotunheim's mages are more focused on sorcery paths, gaining good access to Death, Nature and Blood Magicand some Astral, while the ??Jotun Skratti?? adds strong water magic.
