Re: TRUE effectiveness of VQ/castling/clam-hoarding
I'll tell you instead it's very effective.
I played many times against Vanheim ... he raided all my provinces with his glamouring troops, except those castled. And my abysyan infantry was too slow, to resource cost, to keep the pace with Vans!
But at least my castles saved my temples.
And provinces too.
The fact is even with fiends of darkness patrolling you can catch Vans! And they can get rid of PD quite easily.
Every time I castled, I found myself better, til Norfleet come to knok to my castles gate.
The fact castling is long and requires time and efforts ... since I'm not a skilled player in having quickly some SCs I get bashed.
Get some SCs that can avoid you to buy troops, so you've more money for temples and labs, and the bigger job is done.
However to prove the effectiveness, you should hear Norfleet who's skilled not a noob like me.
Best thing to evaluate how is effective? Play against Norfleet.
