Slow but tough, that's how you can describe the earth elementals. Thanks to the big resistance to might and magic and regeneration you can be sure, that they get to the enemy's lines. But it's Petrification what is the biggest advantage of this. Properly use can exclude the particular troop from the battle, what may be decisive.
