Does Soul Gate need gold?

Ermor Soul Gate summons their armies, and so they don't need gold for army building. Obviously, they do need to build temples, forts, labs. Can they get away with -3 disorder -3 sloth -3 cold?

Just don't forget to pillage (the population's going to die anyhow *shrug*), don't be afraid to alchemize, and don't build a temple if you can't defend it against the assorted raiding spells because that's 200 gold you'll never see again.

Yes ! And thus you spread your rotten dominions on your living neighbours

Get gold through pillaging (mostly) and alchemy for building.

Its not so much can they get away with it, its the standard. If you are going to play Ermor competitivly you TAKE 3turmoil, 3sloth, 3 cold. There is some difference of opinion about luck, but personally i leave it even because i dont want to take 3 turmoil and 3 misfortune together, especially since bad luck can kill temples.
