It is nearly impossible to stop a good Isis from going to Heroic. Massed priests behind towers are massively more powerful than people expect. I don't do Anc/eclipse btw (unless i know that the game is over)
The weakness of Isis is during 2 critical times, prosperity and on the hitting of heroic when resources are low (only for fast heroics though). Also if you force isis to use Barrack units in Heroic, you will have a much better chance.
There are also 3 critical areas you can hit Isis in. These are the gold mines (well obviously), caravans, and one few people expect to be such a big factor, FARMS. If you have to let 20 Hippkons die for 15 farms destroyed, so be it, just get rid of them. Destroying farms will absolutely destroy an Isis economy. Go hit the gold, if the army is there, go hit and destroy those farms.
Best game ever made, don't dieeeeeeee[This message has been edited by AzianPhoenix (edited 12-13-2005 @ 07:20 PM).]
