Endless chaffe, but not endless mages, since their cash is so constrained. And they have a really hard time expanding. Oh yeah, and you have to pay upkeep on all that chaffe too, much of which is totally useless. So not only does their income keep shrinking because of their dominion, the growing chaffe armies keep eating more and more of what cash you do get. By year 3 you'll find it hard to have any cash free to actually buy anything.
They may be slightly annoying to kill, but they have little good offense. MA Rlyeh >> LA Rlyeh.
Basically, you may have fought against them, but it doesn't sound like you've actually tried to play them.
