Well I suppose I will never see those national summons available for Default as I had hoped, since I am apparently the only one who feels that they should be made more available but also made weaker.

Any other tips for Default theme? Do you folk normally go Imperial Bowmen with those cavalry types, or what?

I tried more Last night. The bless effect could make a big difference. You have some (relatively) cheap sacred cavalry and good sacred summonable units. So, the blessed effect could help a lot. I used a Moloch with 9 Fire, Death -1, Unluck -1, Productivity +3, Order +2, 6 candles and the 40 admin castle. The holy units is powerful but I still have a mixed feeling: a Fire 9 Moloch is not a very affordable pretender for Tien Chi.

The miserable 15 protection for the Red Guards still hurt. For example, without blessed effect, I don't know how well they will survive in an one-on-one with normal knights - not to mention Man's better Version. But well, you can't have everything.
