"good" to "adequate" to "run of the mill"

so we agree. Jomon has poor access to "run of the mill" SC chassis.

Yes, Jomon is weak. I just don't think any nation out there rates a 1.
on what basis? the rating system QM developed for a specific nation choice game mechanic for a specific experimental game. It has nothing to do w/ some absolute rating like "niefl is 9 times as strong as jomon". To think it does is a bit crazy. It has to do with setting up an allocation of 10 nation choice points. That is all.
Look, buddy, your rudeness is uncalled for.

On any basis you care to name. I don't think it accurately reflects relative power, likelihood to win the game, enjoyment in playing.

I have consistently said that I believe jomon to be about 10-15% weak. If the 'average' dominions nation is a 50.. I believe jomon might be 35-40.

I'd probably put Niefle at 75, Lanka at 65 or so, Hinnom at 70 bogarus at 40,
