I wouldn't have guessed it just by looking at your avatar... ;)

Then again, you could always use the Pirates race, but, why would anyone choose a bonus-less race like that in the first place...

For maps with choke points playing a large role, a spawn bonus can really help you keep that little extra element of control.

Indeed, although it still comes down to luck when the dice roll, regardless of that +1 unit spawn...

My experience after about 1000 games.
Doesn´t matter between agressive or defenders, natives rules in attrition for some reasons:
- In attrition sometimes attack bonuses are so bad and undead are not so usefull like in HC. You attack to one region with 8 with one with 7 to weak it. You have after your first roll 32 to 29, it probably means that you and your opponent stay with 1 to 1 or 2 to one, but as you are undead and undead abuse the ability of his race, you rerroll and have a 34 to 11 and the eight survives.
- In manual you only places 8 because the ability of natives weaks attacks to your other regions.
- In random native players have a lot of problems to cut you.
- In borders the less usefull mode to natives because battles are almost ever between more than one army´s regions, but probably you give your opponent quite problems to cut you.

I have reptiles, arachnids, undead, dark knights and demons, and for att the best is between reptiles and natives.
-Natives better for the first half of the match. Because there are a lot of 1.
-Reptiles for the second, at the starting your bonus doesn´t work but before you could reinforce 2 or 3 adittional armies.

best gmae for attrition xxl hmm pumpkins are good fast spread dragons mostly here. But still that spawn bonus on suck a big map. You heal faster than you lose untis and spread and fill up borders so fast you can just overpower the enemy when you reach a certain number of troops . Like thos map like Imagined world or whatever its called or 250 regions then when you reach 50 something you stop cuz of upgrades limit. Ypou realize the upgrades inst enough after all. You could gotten more like you needed to fill it up cuz it soo easy to find a place to cut but takes long way to cut, its just like a bite. rather than a cut. Imagnie pumpkins with unlimited cap. Would be so OP. Also i belive terminators are good at small maps too. Like lc amp in att when you got a 2 and then one nextto you always ot higher number like . Not much you need to think about and you can easily weaken him or take that region with just a little luck and i your not equal or hgher 15% attack bonus. Doesnt matter on bigger maps maybe in maps like the map witgh 8 slands sgt sluagther did in att when you always wanna weaken the middle and then got a 7 when you got it and going to attack. Thats useful cuz the odds of winingwith a 7 t a 8 is prettty ood and i guess would be pretty equal to 8 to 8 with +15 attack. They should have def with 15% def anyways with smaller army. Abyone wanna calculate the last thing i said`?

In large attrition manual games, natives are usually the best race, and aracnids/lizards second best. The way how your 1 areas count as 2 is quite important. You only need to bypass the enemy's 8s to succeed.

(IMHO this also favours agression by natives because you will do better if you try to enter you enemy's lands before he has the time to build many 8s.)

This will not work if the map has narrow passages where you will end in "ww1" style wars. In this case the native bonus counts for nothing and aracnids/lizards can use the 5% for their own advantage.

As the map goes smaller, aracnids/lizards can do better, but once again only if you have narrow passages or choke points. In the USA map I will probably choose natives. In those random maps probably not.

Therefore your race choice should depend of the map and game setup that you usually play the most.
