Get Archers + some Dryads for slows will work wonders, but I recommend getting a bit more of a variety in ur units, if your enemy goes with a unit with heavy armor your screwed. Don't mass.

The question was whether dyrads worked better with DH or archers, don't try to mass only dyrads, but get a mix of dyrads and archers.

Thats for RoC

And I dont even make Archers unless I see UD massing gargs or other races massing Air.

Archers are completely useless unless your fighting against Air units. Dyrads > Archers because you need Dyrads every time. Every game.

I think archers work well vs. most air and dyrads work better vs. heavy air because most heavy air is magic and dyrads are immune to magic. You should always mix archers and dyrads.

Yes, Chims do magic damage, and Dyrads are immune to magic, so Chims can't hit Dyrads.

Dryads are definitely very important to have in a NE army not only because they are immune to magic, but also because they dispel and slowdown enemy units.

Hunts can still survive if you micro them to dodge the stones the cats throw.

But still the splash damage would hurt you.
Its very hard to micro 4 huntresses and 4 dryads against 3 demos.

Grunts run slow, so you could move your hunts behind the demos and kill the demos.

Bears + Mgs + Archers and some dyrads?

I go hippo rider before they make gruntapult, but Andrew. tells me it sucks :(

Or you can just harass them and kill them before they go tier 2 :)
