Ulm's chosen scales mix things up a bit. One of Ulm's advantages is that its mages aren't affected by the research penalty from drain scales, so Drain 3 is basically free points for them. Ulm's troops have low magic resistance as well, so being in a drain dominion helps them resist hostile spells.

Hadn't heard that before. What tag indicates this?
