Marignon does have a small edge under these conditions: They start with Holy Pyre, an L4 evocation. It's fairly powerful against light to medium troops, and under retarded research conditions, it'll be awhile before other nations match it.
Abysia of course also having a roughly equal edge via the Flare spell. Horrible aim, but it doesn't matter if they hit their own troops, and Flare does significant damage even to heavily armored troops when it does hit. Almost makes it desirable to take a pretender with high fire magic, and good aim.
