I totally agree. The nation has a great lore and feel. Sadly a nation that eats everything and only leaves a barren wasteland behind has the kind of effect you would expect such a nation to have in MP. (Nuke the nation from orbit!)

First thing I did when I first got the game was start up a single player game as LA Ermor, so I know the feeling :D

That said, I don't think it's the best choice for your first MP game; I ended up as them in the first game I subbed into and I got steamrolled (though it had a lot to do with the position the nation was in already, to be fair.) Diplomacy will be very difficult, and it would probably drastically shorten the game either for you or everyone else. If you do decide to take on LA Ermor, though, make sure your Pretender is awake and good at Death magic, otherwise you won't be able to get your mages unless you get very lucky.

Also if LA Ermor joins, everybody is going to get a lot of priests:

MA Ermor uses undead, main counter: Banishment using priests
Lanka uses demons and undead, main counter: Banishment using priests,
LA Ermor uses undead, main counter: Banishment using priests

Nations with access to blood, and thus demons:
Abysia (a blood powerhouse), MA Vanheim, Neifelhiem, Bandar Log, LA Pythium, Gath.

And perhaps I forgot somebody. :)

I don't think I'll be too worried about undead, what with powerful priests and fire magic everywhere.
