Default Re: Why no love for Caelum?

and what is lost when routing ?
100/175 gold for 1 seraph / high seraph .

the economic damage you do on your enemy when attacking 5-10 provinces midgame this way at once , perhaps destroying some temples , putting taxes to 200% , killing pd is much greater .

you surely lose 2-3 seraphs , so -200-300 gold .
your enemy needs to keep lots of troops at home , loses all money invested for pd , is forced to castle , loses pop / money through 200% taxes etc.

all with extremely little effort.

man Last of tuatha / vanheim has to put in much more effort . AND their best mages are capitol only and much more expensive so they are not worth being risked this way.

but a caelum with watchtower as castle has quick his second and third castle to start producing 2 then 3 seraphs / high seraphs each turn .

togehter with the too strong battle summons like the false horrors this gives them a big advantage .


i guess even i could win a 1on1 game on urgaia with caelum though i never played them against almost any opponent expect the experts like storm and zen because their expierience is much greater than mine ( only 5 mp games so far , most still running only 1 finished ) .
