Reminds me of the time when 4 phoenixes trained with the last of my resources helped win the game for me.

yah or mayeb your just using the wrong Mus, for your own personal benefit, i tend to match them up with heroes and human units to make them last way longer seeing that heroes counter myth units and humans counter hero unites, so its all a big circle and some are meant for killing buiuldings faster and some are meant for fighting and so on, you do need them though id love to see you fight a game without myth units they are the biggest pain in the *** to me,

I am used to playing Zeus and Odysseus is starting to ticking me off. I can't wait until I play against guys that don't have ranged heroes.

MUs *combined* with human units rock. Micromanagement of battles are much more important in AOM than it was in AOK. In AOK I used to send a bunch of units into battle and not even look at the battle while I built my economy. Not possible in AOM.

MUs are pretty good if you're egyptian......mixed with elephants and chariot archers of course.....i usually use anubite and mummy/avenger.

I have a few things to add
-As to the nan ranged heroes, the norse have some pretty powerful mus(especially loki) which are ranged, and most mus have bonus dmg against other mus
-When used against their strengths, Mus are great. A eirnhar took out a monument and a half, with minimal reinforcement. A couple fire giants (with or without a nidhogg) can take out a huge amoun of buildings, and can kill collosi if micrmanaged; i dont know anything else that isn't ranged that can take out a collosus 1 on 1(besides a gold or silver one)
-Just my 2 cents

Two MU's I really like using are the Cyclops and Kraken for the same reason. These units are quite different, but they both have the ability to kill units with one move. An army of Cyclops will destroy an army of elephant if you can micromanage good. They pick them up and throw them to there deaths. Kraken is similar, but can take down both land units and sea units.
