Soul Forge and Mokkas Cauldron

You all know about this combo. The only problem is how one get units to die in the city. What method do you preffer? And with what civs /leaders do you try to make this combo?

 

[Emptiness]

I've never tried to make that work, but I will say that getting units to die shouldn't be that hard. Just keep the city stocked with weak units and some strong defenders nearby. Only move in the strong defenders if your enemies threaten to capture the city (by having more attackers than you have sacrificial units).

Just be aware that as you are sacrificing all those units you will be feeding your opponents xp. Also, the flesh golems you get will be unable to get xp on their own and so will require you to sacrifice your own units with promotions if you want to improve them.

So how can you kills units? Can you sacrifice them on a Demon Altar? Can the Balseraphs send them to the Arena? (Mmmmm, mutated Flesh Golems) Can the Calabim use Feed?

How can you get units to kill? Summon-able units? Slaves? Warrens unit?

Balseraph arena doesnt work. I havent tried the other methods. Building both wonders in a border city and trying to lure your opponent to attack it could work but it sounds very risky and hard, considering that border city probably has a hard time producing both two wonders.

I recommend building them in a border city. You can use gold to speed the production if you have a strong economy, or slaves if you are non-good. I recommend the slaves approach because if you are going to goad opponents into attacking you then you'll be in a excellent position to get more slaves...

If you are lucky enough to have one or two Engineers available then you can build the wonders very quickly.

You no longer get flesh golems from Mokka's cauldron, it creates "evil" variants of the killed units. And hammer addon from SoulForge is negligible by the late game standarts as well.
