Hello, I am a primarily Suremacy player and I have a few questions for versing Hades as Norse. I am looking to use Norse in deathmatch, though no one seems to pay attention to the deathmatch forum, so I'm posting this again for anyone who has any comments.
1) When I play against my friend when he is Hades, I am wondering about a good strategy as Norse. Most of the time, his army is primarily Gastraphetes with Hippikons and Collossi as a meat sheild. With Huskrals being only hand to hand units, I have a hard time reaching the Gastraphetes. When I move in with some Ballista, the Gastraphetes can chew right throught them. Any ideas?

2) As Norse, I like the idea of going Heimdall (sorry about the spelling) and creating the awesome tower - spamming Tyr Huskrals that double somewhat as seige. Against his mainly archer + meatsheild army, should I go with Heimdall and Tyr for his Huskrals, or should I go with Baldr for his Sons of Slepnir(spelling - sorry)Raiding Cavalry?
3) I like going with Thor, but is Odin or Loki a better choice?
Any other tips with Norse against Hades would be greatly appreciated.
