-Your last troop is the O-Bakemono. They kinda suck. Shitty armor means they need buffs to not die, and undisciplined means they don't sit still long enough to get buffs. But low resource and recpoint cost mean that you can crank them out in an emergency if you need power fast. Most of the time just get Dais instead

 So great, you have a roster of cost efficient troops who fill a broad variety of roles with options for chaff, elites, attack density, attack quality, stealthy, UW, mage line defenders, spam archers for flaming arrows, and knock off gladiators making shinuyama a Strong nation even without looking at the mages

+  * ??Fire Shield??
-  * Breath of winter gives an increased chill aura which puts everyone around you into a coma if they aren't cold resistant. This helps you form a protective cocoon of hypothermic militia when facing an army.
+  * ??Phoenix Pyre??
