    problem with griffs is that they r tooo weak to take a town by itself, cuz they take forever and by the time they r finished with a building, the enm has already got together some defense and is ready to kick the griffs a**....

    Diff griffs con differently. Next time one flies righ^([sic]) over you, /con it to see how it sees you. Some con "ready to attack" to me and some /con "Indifferently" and anywhere in between.

    Lure will get the mage some breathing room, so it isn't an absolute kill (and Stone Gaze can really hurt the griffs), but it sure is fun.
