It should be noted, that although Ice Elementals' information states that they suffer no [[melee penalty]], that is not true. ({{withhota}} ''Fixed in [[Horn of the Abyss]]'')

{{user commentary|
Water Elementals should be promoted to Ice Elementals as soon as possible, since their basic version cannot shoot and is very slow. However, your main shooting force might be [[Air Elemental and Storm Elemental|Storm Elementals]], as they have higher possible damage and are significantly faster than Ice Elementals, having speed 8 which is excellent for a ranged unit. Storm and Ice Elementals have similar stats. As Ice Elementals have significant damage range, boost them with [[Bless]], and when playing against them, cast [[Curse]] on these units.
