I'm working on some Illy tutorials and looking for some community input. Q: How would you describe the strengths and weaknesses of each race (i.e. Human, Dwarf, Elf, Orc) if you were advising someone who was about to open an account for the first time and was choosing a race? |

| Human: knights hit hardest on plains, but are slower than elf counterparts. Other units are meh. Dwarf: Faster cats, stals hit hardest on anything but plains. But slow. Elves: fastest cav, sents have great economy. No real downside. Orcs: T1 spears are meta, fangs are good, cav doesn't suck. No real weakness, but need specific sov to fully capitalize on strenght. |
