Default Re: What Would be an Ideal Pretender for Niefelhei

Earth 9 vs Earth 8 is *4* points of protection.

N9 vs N8 is more questionable, since it provides berserk, and since it costs a lot more (given your chassis is a Cyclops.)

It's true that Niefelheim is vulnerable to raiding; but this is true regardless of build. The best way to deal with raiders is to send out single Niefel *jarls*. They only cost money so the key is to cultivate a philosophical attitude about their death.
