The Nature Race.

I see this race as having very few numbers of permanent units. The biggest strength this group has is what it can do with the surrounding environments–calling on plants and animals to aid them. When I picture the battlefield with them, I see only a handful of units (hundreds, really) against thousands. Then, on the initial charge of the enemy I see the ground opening below them, great bolts of lighting striking down from above, vines and trees attacking, snaring. This would be a group with very little defense, very few numbers, but very powerful abilities–if overwhelmed or outplayed they’d go down in no time, but in the hands of a competent leader they’d be very hard to beat. Of course they’d have other bonuses, movement bonuses, concealment bonuses, etc.
