Default Re: Are there any good Mari Players out there?

I have mainly played Micti blood and Macha games but I recently started messing with Mari...I have to say the thing I noticed first about them was the crossbows....cheap, powerful combined with mages that can flame arrows and also a little like Macha you tend to be able to field a lot of fire darts mages in early expansion.

But with Diabolic faith I have no idea why but I seem to be able to get a blood economy going easier than Micti...maybe its the need for micti sacrifice to spread dom, but everytime I play Mari blood I end up being able to forge 2 or 3 soul contracts before I have a serious use for the slaves in other areas.

The national troops are good, but the 1 move is shoddy and doesnt mix well with a flier culture of armies at all. Thats probably the hardest thing I have found so far, I tend to have large armies of devils and stuff but they have little back up in terms of being able to move about and respond.
