Default Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions

To be blunt, some nations weren't meant for progression, but as alternate versions. It seems like Kristoffer decided it was better to put them in anyway instead of just throwing away. Fair enough.

More about Ulm: in a way, Ulm progression is:

1-3-2

At least as far as armour and magic is concerned. I completely forgot Ulm supposedly comes from Ermor. Perhaps because Pythium and Marignon look more convincing for me. Looking at Pythium it's hard to forget it comes from Ermor. If anything, it might be a little too similar. Ok, but as far as units go, MA Ulm has little similarities with EA Ulm, and with Ermor, too. Now that Ulm has inquisition, it may have more in common with Marignon than Ermor, and Marignon just got less unique.

I think Ulm's infantry should be buffed and buffed until their strategic move (1), low MR, and extreme expense become necessary to keep them from being overpowered.
