Ghost Dragons vs. Bone???

Seriously, is it me or are Ghost Dragons so bad???  They seem WAY too overpriced but Necros need them so bad cause of the stupid speed.  Argh -.- it drives me insane because I would /much/ rather hire regular bone dragons instead for the cost comparisant.  Ghost Dragons seems so awful X_X

Ghost drags are weak, but cool if you can implement their age attack. That can seriously knock the hell out of the opposition army especially if you can say....get his stack of goldies or something down to 125 health. Split stacks of ghost drags are effective too. Feed your zombies and wraiths to the transformer and voila...2 free slots for some ghost drags.

Plus they are totally necessary for speed anyway, the next fastest being VL's and Dreads at speed 9. With one speed artie, you are matching the speed of blacks and if you are the attacker, you get iniative first round...very important.

Ugh I remember playing vs a Nec not to long ago man first hit from the Ghost aged my AA that hurt big time increaing my HP 125 ugh.

Lv 7 units can go down quickly even the AB with an efficient hit from the Ghost age effect.

Curing Aging

Yeah, I think that casting a cure spell takes care of it, at least until the next GD attack.

Most likely if your facing an army with faster units, they would have already cast there magic.  So for that one turn your army can really do some damage.

It can be cured...which is half the fun. When a player sees a stack of their archangels aged, then they panic and it becomes their main priority..."must cure angels!"

While he is doing this, you are free to use your own arsenal of spells, while he is so intent on curing, you could be animating, imploding, berseerking....just generally getting ready for the kill.

With proper use, by a SKILLED player...they can be deadly.

Learn to play, then judge.

You see, you can't have all the creatures in the game available in one army. So, if you're playing Necro, you'll enjoy the power of skels, but your 7th level will be GhostDrags, which are not that good. You can't have "better dreatures" on your 7th level (unless you manage to capture and build up another type of town and get a good amount of level 7, but that doesn't happen so often).
Enuf explanation?

rych is correct...when ghost drags used correctly they are extremely effective. as compared to most 7ths however they are very weak.

but..why should you care? the true strength of necro is legions of lvl1's,as opposed to other classes!

the three strengths of necro is:
-legions of lvl 1 (i.e. necromancy)
-Vampire lord (best lvl 4 units)
-Dread knights (best lvl 6 units)

And that's IT!

disagree, think the efreet sultans are a little bit better, coz of their fireshield, firemagic immunity and their speed
And that's IT!
