== Harpy Hag Hoodoo ==
Since they are fast and strike with no retaliation, [[Harpy Hag]]s can be used to attack neutral stacks which are much more powerful than they are. To make this work, you need to be facing enemy troops with a speed of 4 or less, or use the [[Slow]] or [[Haste]] spells so that your Harpy Hags are moving more than twice as fast as the enemy (or some fortuitously-placed obstacles).  You can then choose to wait, to make the enemy move first, swoop in and attack, then, when they get close, hustle to a new location and repeat (beware [[Morale]] bonuses by the enemy, however!). In a multiplayer game, this can take some time to do and hence is frowned upon, but early on in a SP game you can use it to clear mines/guardians you would otherwise not be able to, at least until your Dragons become available.  This tactic can basically be done with any non-retaliatory creature (Cerberi, Arch Devils, Sprites, Vampire Lords), but the HH's are the only one to return to their original hex.
