Re: LA Ulm, specifically against LA Ermor
 

E9? I didn't use a bless for this game, going for a more rainbow-can-summon-everything-for-magic-diversity method.

Still, I like the knights, they do tend to have staying power, even w/o bless.

I just like the mythos of the nation. I think it's cool and thematic. In SP, you can technically win with anything, so I just like to have fun with different stuff. It was a nice intro to blood magic for me, and the vampire counts are pretty cool. The rangers remind me of the rangers of Gondor, if say, they became evil and um, eastern europeany.

The priests are cool looking, too. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

E9N4 can result in some very nice knights and the commander knights make great thugs.

Re: LA Ulm, specifically against LA Ermor
 

Hmmm... my trial game had my capital surrounded by water on two sides and with 3 small provinces around it, so I think I just wrote them off as too expensive (I even had production 1 and could still only manage 2 a round).

Still, and as always without the benefit of extensive experience, I can't help but see all the beautiful magics, strong priests, and more readily used sacreds of LA Mictlan when I try to play LA Ulm.
