[Ozymandias]

I think this poll has some structural problems. Perhaps questions with answers like 'never', 'seldom', 'often', & 'constantly' would provide a better feel of the provinces that poll contributers remember better because they were noteworthy in some game or other. That being said it does seem like the crystals are quite a bit less likely. I have only encountered them a couple times during my testbedding of various nations. Often plains battles are terribly dull too; this province has light infantry, militia, and archers - that one has heavy infantry, militia, and archers.
