DM vs. the Persians

In AOK many people like to use the Persians due to their elephants and paladins.Elephants have like 450 hit points and when their elite eles thier like 550 or 600.Building a huge army of Eles,paladins and bombard cannons seems unstoppable like the Hittites in the expansion set.

DM vs. the Persians Revisited

I have found that when playing DM, Persian players come in two different settings: Those who wait until they have 30 + eles and kill you with them supported by bombard canons/paladins, and those who rush.<br /><br /> Reading <a href="/university/archives/deathmatch/dm-vs-persians/">Viracocha's paper</a> about how to defend yourself against a Persian player I realized that (as Viracocha pointed out) it only applies to the first case. This is not applicable to a rusher.
