Default Re: Balance on small maps

How about you people play something else than Early Age and against someone else than EA Vanheim/Helheim before you complain? EA Vanheim/Helheim are easily the most grossly overpowered nations in the whole game and they would own even with no blesses. For Umor's sake, almost all of their units have freaking Glamour!

Niefelheim is another very powerful nation because their Niefel giants have awesome stats AND they have built-in mob counter (to an extent) in the form of Chill. They would be very nasty (though cost inefficient) even without any blesses at all.

Mictlan is very, very efficient with blesses but then again, if you are a Caelum (or pretty much anyone with missile weapons) why not just buy archers and let their units perish under a rain of arrows? I didn't see A4 bless mentioned in that W9/F9 bless... Works perhaps a bit worse in action than on paper, but I'd expect that missile weapons would work fine against them. OzeLOLs excluded, because they fly. Ouch.

Early Tien's recruitable sacreds are glass cannons for 3/4ths of the game with that 1/4th being Spring. Even on spring they are vulnerable to missiles unless you take Air with that Fire and Water. Their summonable blessables are nice though.
