Well, it's possible, of course, that I rate some nations too high if I get the inpression I know how to play them. But I think that the nations I assessed are a good example of the "area between "average" and "WOW"" that you mentioned.
And I said that Agartha is an example of early game rating of 1-2 with their Pale One troops. Maybe EA Marverni is another such - I didn't play them and when I met them in MP, I advanced against them quite successfully despite being new in it. About EA Arcoscephales I don't know currently (didn't try them in MP - their infantry is worse than hoplites, but they have chariots, so maybe 3 for early game...

And if you want an algorythm to change my assesses, than it would be more like "subtract 2 than multiply by 2, subtract 0-1 randomly" - or you would get Helheim early game at 5, which is definitely NOT what I meant!
