Strategy
As a heavy infantry type hero, Thutmose fights well against numerous types of units, namely light infantry, archers and siege, as well as buildings and myth units. He also provides the best movement bonus in the game. When Horus' Winds is activated, all of the player's other units have their movement increased by 8 for the remainder of their turn. Units that benefit the most from this bonus are the slowest, namely Scarabs, Catapults, Rocs and the Phoenix. This makes it easier for the player's army to mobilize on the battle field, join an ongoing battle or retreat from one. Players must make sure to use it as early as possible so that a higher number of units benefit from it. Thutmose himself cannot benefit from the speed boost as he cannot move for the remainder of the turn when his hero power is used and it expires at the end of the turn.
