Really? There seem some obvious counters. too obvious maybe? |
I think namad exaggerates a bit, but his general point is correct. Elephants are terrible against high-def, high-morale undead, and can't reliably trample ethereal units, and Ermor's typical research path takes him straight to some of the good elephant counters. Jotun's giants have poor attack and are vulnerable to swarming, and have no magic weapons. Neither nation has H3 priests or magic weapons of any sort.
I of course can't say how it would have turned out, but the matchup is nowhere near as difficult as the one up north. |
I suppose I must admit that. I would have thought, however, that the death magic of jotun would have been of good use, and I had a few plans on how to fight ermor if I was near him that I'm not going to say anything about while I'm still in a game with you guys.
