This faery discussion is sorta funny. There isnt a problem breaking faeries and once broken they go down like a collapsing building. The issue seems to be is it worth the trouble? Well that is the sort of tactical decision that makes the game interesting isn't it? Don't like spells or thief ops on you? then get some defense against it. If you play orc with 0.5 wpa and 1 tpa dont come crying why some tm beats the snot out of you get some defense. A kd with 6 faeries has given up 6 attackers to get that. Dont whine about it, exploit it.
