Well I havenīt checked that, might very well be. But another problem for the sacred f9 troops is that you wonīt have many compared to ermor and without an e9 blessing, your troops will simply succumb to fatigue when they try to wade through hundreds of spirits/shadows. Especially when the spectators come out and start skeleton spamming. If you go for f9/e9 you wonīt have enough points for a good economy and high dominion.

As for preaching out ermor, the problem is that SGermor spends all his money on temples and has no upkeep to pay for his troops, so the actual income is not that low. Even with no fire sites I had an income of ~200/turn in the second game vs qm. That means you have to have a starting dominion of 10 and build a temple every turn to win the dominion war vs ermor. If you want to build mages this wonīt be possible.

Stealth preaching wonīt be possible vs ermor, because usually border provinces get patrolled by one freespawn leader with his 75 troops.
