[Gandalf Parker]

New players tend to miss that the game is not balanced one-on-one but more rock-paper-scissors. Often Ermor is pointed out as being unbalanced. Which it is if put up against someone like Ulm (heavy armor). Then later they figure out that Ulm is unbalanced when put up against Marignon (heavy in priests). While Marignon is unbalanced when put up against Ermor (lots of undead).

As long as there is someone that is setup to handle someone else, the game is balanced. (kudos to the devs for choosing one of the most difficult balancing acts to do)
