Basilisks have pretty high stats for their level. As other Fortress creatures, they have an excellent special ability. Upgrading them right away is recommended due to the significant increase in speed. If you choose Bron as your starting hero (or recruit him as one of the weekly heroes at a tavern), you will have Basislisks in your army. This is the only hero that starts with a level 4 creature (and also gives them +1 speed), giving your army some advantage in the early game. Dividing your early basilisks (either Bron's or other ones) into several stacks is a useful tactic to maximize the chances to trigger the powerful petrification, which will take an enemy stack out of action for a whole three rounds. |
