Re: What Would be an Ideal Pretender for Niefelhei
My problem with such a build is it means tanking your your economy and most likely relying on a smaller, fewer but more powerful armies. With Big N's incredibly bad PD (I think scouts can win with less than 10) you are incredibly susceptible to economy crushing raids (stealth, flying, etc.). Bum rushing enemy capitals can work rather well, but if they are to distant or your opponent knows what he or she (ok, he) is doing- you can find yourself in a world of hurt unable to afford more sacred units. N. Giants and Jarls are still very effective with a E6N6 blessing, and you save a lot of points that way.
Still, DrP is a much better player than I am, so he knows what he's talking about.
