 I'll deal with horsemen and see if I can lead the colossus into a building or something, perhaps we could use one of the demolishers torches against the barbarians?

I'll kill off any group units, then see if I can go after the berserkers.

I'd prefer you didn't. I don't want to shoot through walls at him.

How? They don't have buildings.

He meant use one of our buildings. Or in other words the reason he was trying to lead him inside. I don't think it's a good idea but nonetheless that's I think what he was trying to get at.

Gore which I then place into the coffin,

Key:

H = House, Carl Anderson and his Bastilla are set on that one to the right.
R* = Romans, you guys.
/// = Dirt Road
B* = Barbarians

# of letters does not accurately represent how many Romans or Barbarians or present, it's just a rough estimate as to where their lines are in regards to the city.

Yes, because obviously the Demolisher's themselves can only use their torches to attack buildings, so it only makes sense that their torches woukd be useless against anything else.

Oh wait...

Remember the Demolishers are enemy units they're not going to attack their own units. Therefore the only way to attack them would be I assume a form of splash damage caused by lighting a building on fire while they're in it.

Splash damage? Structural assault?

I'd just like to reinforce the message that the Barbarians will indeed pillage the city, but will kill you all first beforehand.

Oh I never said that could be done. I just assumed that was what was being planned. Honestly I might've mis-read I don't know. It certainly seems that way though.

They were saying use the demolisher's torches against them. As in, kill demolishers, pick up their torches, use torches as weapons.

They're not exactly the best anti-personnel weapons, or better enough than ours to justify the effort required to take them, or better than ours, or anything we know how to use properly, or likely to still be lit after we kill them.

...you throw them. You throw them repeatedly, and it gives them a penalty to attack next turn. If they aren't lit, they aren't lit. But don't act like it's automatically a bad idea just because there's something that might go wrong.
