When you are playing ermor, you should really overtax at 200% as much as possible and patrol to keep unrest down in any province you have dominion in. This is particularly wise to do in your capitol as it will soon be a smoldering ruin anyway and not do much for you otherwise. Relish (and overtax madly) any province you capture outside of your dominion that has a large population, as you can get a significant increase to your tax base from them. And if you have priests available, reanimate all the dead peasants this creates to swell your armies. Luck scales as others have mentioned are very important as well, as your lands quickly become useless and luck events can provide a useful source of income.
