I'm sorry Johan. I was being sarcastic. Ah, so much is lost on the internet.

I meant the requirement for the Carrion to have at least Growth 1 for the theme, so you don't get too many points .

Part of the reason that the Carrion Woods theme is strong is because it is like Ermor; you can just pillage and tax to death everyone in your lands and let the Carrion Lords mop up while you make scads of Minos, Harpies and Pans.
