Is Themistocles a good general in Evony?

Themistocles is a Duty who offers you some excellent buffs when made your Archer Tower Officer. In particular, this is driven by his Special Skill, Themistoclean Wall, which increases in-city troop attack by 25% and reduces enemy attack by 15% when in this role. On top of this, his Specialties and Ascensions add further significant buffs for your Archer Tower, such as Sage which grants an additional 100% attack to your Archer Tower.
