Default Re: Your favorite nations / themes -- and why! please participate!

Wow.. Where to start..
I love Ermor, Ashen empire only.
I love man, who needs themes?
I can play Ctis as I like the dancers.
I love Mictlan.
Pangaie is fun, and I like the age of iron option (whatever they call it).
Arcosephale - I only like Golden Era. I love philosophers, fast research trail,mind burn,soul slay.
Jotunheim I like - cheap mages, and boy can they tear down forts.
Pythium is cool, although I don't much go for hydras.
Caelum raiding is...incredibly fun, although I generally cant stand the "nerve wracking, constantly moving" pace.
I love the Autumn & Spring of Tien.. An age of heros.


On the other hand:
Can't stand ULM, boring, weak
Marignon.. Might as well call them Iran to me - although I know its more a Teutonic theme.
Machkava. Spiders are for squishing, not playing with.
Vanheim. Worthy foes. Too expensive.
Ryleh is fun.. but I cant stand loosing priests to the void gate.
Atlantis is just boooooooring.
Abyssia... I know everyone likes em. Too expensive, slow for my style of play. Must admit.. watching troops becoming flaming marshmallows is fun..

Favorite subtlety:
With Death 9, as your troops and leaders die, they become souless. Accumulate enough of them for your own "free" amphibious force. Good enough to take that first water hex....


Best
