Unfortunately, Sombre was not sticking up for you in his post. Reread it.

But, he does have a point. Drain with this nation is not an option. The research mages are subpar at best. There are also other glaring weaknesses with your guide which you fail to mention nor give a solution to. Low income. Heat 3, death 3 and Sloth 3 you are totally depending on luck to get you money. Even your plan to thug out Ancient Lords has a HUGE flaw which you fail to note. Fight in your dominion and a heat 3 province and they gain 2 extra fatigue from extreme heat. Along with your gear, your 4 reinvigoration can't keep up. Your "SC" fatigues out and dies. Fight in enemy dominion and god forbid it has just one tick of cold scale to it. Your encumberance goes through the roof due to cold blood. Even a ring of cold resistance will not save you from that penalty. Thus, you are forced to fighting in your own dominion if your opponent has a cold dominion. No offense is a recipe for lose. And you totally neglect the best part about Argatha which is their summons. What strategies for those cool Umbruls or magma childeren? OOPS, you have none because you are using all of your gems making equipment!
