Songs of Conquest - Rana VS Deadly AI - Cheluns & Shamans

The meta game plan on this newly updated Crossroad template seems to be to rush toward the middle and take control of all the expansions. This works well against the deadly AI. In this game, I made sure I could get reinforcement through spawning pool before engagement with the enemy. M'Sugna is a very powerful wielder who can go head on against the deadly AI. Together with Cheluns and Shamans, she could spam Acid Clouds for massive AoE damage, use Ethereal Scales to make troops almost invincible to melee damage, warp units around with Dimensional, and so forth. Furthermore, she is a magic wielder who gets Essence Shield at level 8 (30% resist to each unit until it uses an ability or attack) . And since Cheluns come with 50% base range resistance, they are almost invincible during the early turns of city siege.

Wow, that strategy looks super strong; even in lategame. Arcane and Creation match perfectly. And yet you got the possibility of another strong might-based army containing Storm Guards, Protectors/Crawlers/Riders. Well done!
And thank you for doing english content for SoC! Its hard to find someone good at that game to learn from not speaking russian or polish. Love to them! But it's harder to follow.
I am starting to like this games tactics even more than HoMM3's

Thanks for the video. How does Rana might-based army work I wonder. If you have any place you can direct me I'd appreciate it. Going to watch some more of your stuff now.
