I'm not giving away the rest of the cents. There is one big cent stack, pegasi, two single unicorns and three single cents.

Yes, my choice is obviously bad if there are so many gogs. I tried with 80 gogs (no magogs with them) and they fired at the unicorns, completely ignoring the gremlins. So a wounded unicorn with 22 hp didn't resist in melee vs 2 gog stacks until the slow grems and dwarves came. Definitely take the cents, there will normally be 5 groups of gogs.

I've lost too many week one unis by splitting them fighting shooters. I learned my lesson.
A single uni with Kyrre's 4 attack will only kill about 3 gogs. The stacks will be AT LEAST 10-12 gogs each and probably more. So a single uni would have to hit a stack a minimum of 4 times, plus a round to get there. That's waaaay too long for the gogs to shoot.
The unis have hit points, but the cents are the power stack to do all the damage.

Mullich has Expert haste, basic shield/stone skin/blind/dispel available.
Gundula has Expert slow/shield/stone skin and basic blind/dispel available.
Being Mullich, what would you do?

AAs are going first and he'll mass slow you so champions, angels, griffin and monk are gonna play before your efreet. You should position your troops out of champions and griffin reach. Then you mass haste and let loose.
Or concede.

Nah, the Dragons come after the AA's.
On another note, allowing cons to be upgraded can be lethal, even when you have such a wyvern+dragon stack yourself.

Would be interesting to know what template this was. Low stats on heroes, but good amount of troops. And I wonder where Mullich got these dragons from...a box?

Missed the dragons. LoL
Then it's just mass haste and let loose. Or concede.
But you really should have upgraded. Those wyverns get a nice damage buff if upgraded. Then there's dragons.
Because of dispel blind isn't very effective. It will only stop him using slow.

It was a friendly game on Skirmish. The large amount of troops was because we got to 226 I think. My friend is even more of a newb than me so he hadn't even gotten out of his second yet. I was confident I had quite an army advantage due to the reds and the wyverns (2 dragon dwellings + pos) and 5 hives. I had 3 angels from conservatories myself but lost 2 of them with poor mistakes (blind+ballista) so I didn't include them in my final army.
Basically I cleared the relevant stuff in my 3rd zone and his 3rd zone then I was certain I'd be enough ahead. But 3 angels from cons graded meant 8 AA's and an additional stack (Halberdiers or Marksmen).
The results were pretty close though, because of the dragons I had his AA stack down to 2 in the first round without losing -too- much other than reds.
My first "real" game with inferno though. Devils are expensive!

Alright, here's a new one.
We're sitting at a decent large Blockbuster. Looking at the entrance to my 3rd area. Things have been fairly good towards me. Angels week 1 but no cons/hives though. Yog is not the best barbarian but atleast he got log and earth within the first 4 levels!
Now my dilemma is: Do I fight the Throng Evil Eyes now (how?) to get the 3rd mage guild which I need to get slow (Yes, 2 mage guilds, about 10 shrines, no slow). Do I wait until 136 to get my AA's? (Which would mean no losses against those EE's.) Throng diamonds aren't fun without mass slow or AA's either. So do I just sit around three days ...or do I pull a magic trick out of my hat somehow? My 6 champions are two days off due to a poor stable position (didn't get cavaliers until late week 2)
Ideas?

Only a select few including shield, stone skin, cure. I might have haste in my necrotown but I haven't visited it.

Any scouts near to sacrifice and check how many eyes?

What difficulty?
Do you have got an ammo cart?
What level is Yog?
Does he have expert offense already?
What was his first magic skill offered?
Did you take that skill?

Basic cure is fairly useless. I don't have speed arts but I do basic tactics. I tried the fight with the stacks you see on Yog on the screenshot. As a result eyes came in 5 or 6 stacks giving me too many losses.
The difficulty is 160%, I don't have an ammo cart, Yog is level 8 with advanced offense, advanced earth.

..if this is an Area Block you need to know the Block Quantitiy, then you divide the Quantity by the price of the unit and you will know the exact number of eyes (on "normal creature strengh" though).
"Throng" alone is too vague.

Of course, but I know from experience that a 3rd zone Throng is never much more than a 100, I don't think I have seen one about 120 as of yet.
