Re: Why do people hate on Ulm?
Well, having played MA Ulm in my first MP game I can tell you - I took a commanding lead and built some impressive armies. Then my opponents start developing spells like Darkness, Arrow Fend, Flaming Arrows, etc. My mighty armies quickly became targets for high level evocation spells. My own magic was so predictable - Blade Wind, Destruction repeat...that my enemies knew exactly what to expect. Needless to say, the fall of Ulm was almost as fast as its rise.
I will always have a place in my heart for the stalwart Ulmites, but won't be eager to try them again in MP.
