I have to admit to being a bit lost regarding some of the early game SC concerns due to lack of details.

I've experimented with a Niefelheim SC Bless race (see Niefelheimn thread) with the Earth mother Earth 9, nature 9 and my experiances don't fit the picture being painted. My blessed, sacred Niefel Giants die with great ease fighting any troops capable of dealing out alot of damage. Remember they have prot +4, berserk 3, regeneration and reinvigoration - yet they get slaughtered by Knights! The Earth Mother is very vunerable without magic items - slowing down her usage and making her researching ability tempting.

My Niefel Giants with Water 9 / Nature 9 Blessings go down alot as well. Worse I have the hardest time keeping my Pretender and my Prophet from going blind.

I am not saying that they are not effective because they are. I just lose them almost as fast as I make them. I trade them for new provences and winning battles.
