I find being able to take enemies down in one attack round to be invaluable in VIP. Which make POB/GG and level 3 fangs with mighty blow appeal to me for that kind of battle. Being able to pierce right through the enemy wall or jump a vip with your last move makes for some easier wins than they otherwise would have been. Once their VIP has been downed it doesn't really matter what the state of your army is in; so long as your own VIP is not within harms way. It's much harder to use this tactic on the lanevar map with you starting with the stones on either side of you though. Though in general that level is hard to play as wolfen because lions and rams know there are only 2 points of entry for the wolfen and the second point is on the other side of the map. It means you have a not so flexible team but it's nice being able to throw a curve ball and make your opponent have to play to your strategy.
This is the map i'm talking about i grabbed it in the training mode, i figured i've brought it up enough times that i ought to post a pic.

I think cutting the middle bushes on either side could/would help open up the map though i'm sure that would mean changes would need to be made to the current KOH tile positions. I personally much prefer the other version of this map as i feel it's much more balanced because there are a lot more pathways that can be travelled.
