Anybody have any ideas on how to use the Sphinx's special ability in a tactical manner. As I understand it, when he turns into a tornado he can neither deal nor receive damage. The only usefull ways that i can see to use this is that perhaps he keeps other units busy because they will be trying to deal damage to him but cannot. This could be especially good against MU killers such as heros or pharoahs; but it seems to me that there should be a deeper level of strategy here that I am missing. Any comments or suggestions.

You aren't deep, HSM. You don't have vibes.

if the sphinx could not attack or receive damage when in cyclone form then it could be sent to the back of an enemy army to kill off annoying archer mu's or units that would otherwise be blocked by incoming infantry

Based upon the information that I have received, Sphinxes cannot be attacked while they are being a mini-tornado...But they deal all-around damage while doing so.
