Well, I'm out first. I suppose that isn't too surprising as the only nation that didn't get a corner.

Also, Ashdod really suffers under 300% gold/resources - i just couldn't build enough units to deal with Abysia's cheaper but still quite good troops. No way I can beat 10:1 odds against them. So yes, I could have a handful more sacreds than usual - but not enough more to matter. (If I were fighting BL only, sure, but Abysian troops are good enough to overwhelm me in quantity - ouch).

Should have remembered Namad's after-action description of his problems with Ashdod in NvV3 which ran at a mere 150% gold/res, due entirely to not having enough oomph with a magic/sacred based fighting force against the much larger than normal armies he was contending against.
