The game is meant to be balanced on medium sized maps. On postage stamp maps rushers have to be better, because otherwise they'd be weaker on larger maps.

The problem is that some nations are in effect Rockscissors.

The game should have a few nations which are both rock&scissors because the game is not MP only. Balance is a major issue when the races/nations are limited to about 11 choices, however Dominions_3 has over fifty nations and more coming with patches. I would hate to see a patch delayed because the developers are worried of releasing a nation which doesn't meet balance expectations.
This balance discussion revolves around games which involve Vanheim/Helheim and there are many ways to not include them in the game or mod the changes for these nations. Bug fixes are more important in our upcoming patches than providing balance for less than 8% of the total nations available in the game.
