Default Isn\'t undead a bit too powerful?

Especially with the undead races?
Éven when i outsummoned them by using earth magic and reliven statues(the only thing more powerful than undead) on easy difficulty i met a army of 1600(!!!) undead in their homebase, playing against ermor and chtis by using Vanheim.

my computer crashed a time or two when i tried storming the castle at first so i had to summon some mechanical dragons to storm them.

this was turn 50ish btw, mid size map of 60 provinces.
still amazing that 2 computer controlled opponents managed to summon 1600 units, each! without the undead global spell active or any provinces to in which deliver gems

Ashen empire ermor has unholy priests, and thus does not require gems to summon ghouls, soulless, longdead, longdead horseman, or lictors. Broken empire ermor can summon all but lictors. Soul gate can summon endless shadows. As long as the priests in its home province are alive they will continue to produce more troops.

Thats why I don't play Ermor against the computer opponents... because the game would be so easy.

Ermor always is very strong just don't include him in your games unless you feel ready... or make the other computer opponents at a much higher difficulty level.


As for multiplayer... No Ermor isn't too powerful. Human opponents know how to tear apart armies from Ermor in the beginning. The longer Ermor is alive the more deadly he becomes if played by a human.
