That's true, they are a bit of the the Incan HC. But keep in mind that with the higher attack rate, the armor of the targeted unit is used moreoften. Still, since the Slinger has a very fortunate attack value (19), he can kill a Halb with 4 hits (15x4=60), and a Champ with 5 (14x5=70), bringing their HP to exactly zero. A HC needs 3 and 4 hits, respectively, and is less accurate. Plus the HC is much more frail. So basically, it's a good thing the Incas lack that dude even in full tech tree games. xD
