Not only this,I can use my starting troops to patrol my home provinces and set taxes to 120 or 130,without losing too much population on the longterm

that is not too good i think because of this you wrote
iirc you lose lots of population through higher taxes then 100% , more population through patrolling and finally :
your patrollers most likely have upkeep .

so even in the short run you get more money most likely without patrollers and taxes simply at 100%.


hm i think the phönixes niche where he shines is for marignon : e.g. f9 bless effect + he can be risked on indy provinces hopefully conquering them through holy pyre / fire darts .

but 80 new path costs , base hp of 12 and only 2 misc + 1 headslot look too limiting to me to use him as an sc .


the problem with the vq is i think she is still the best allrounder pretender sc fully euqipped.

of course a lucky e.g. soul slay may kill her .
but that is true for every sc .
other than that i think because of her very good built in abilities the only reliable solution to kill her are armor negating weapons using scs , for nonhighstrenghts scs like niefel jarls i think though a gate cleaver is needed to kill her reliable .
but that is if you use the vq as sc .

if you use her as leader of a great army i think the chances are really bad to kill her only due to luck with e.g. soul slay you might kill her or if the attacker makes scripting faults .

but more important i think first e.g. the father of serpents and the like need a bit of improvement . i think at the moment only about 10 of the 40-50 available pretenders are chosen for mp 90% of the time without houserules .
