Default Marverni

Gah, I've got an awesome Marverni guide I just typed up that I'm having trouble resisting posting.

Must...wait...until...after...current...game!

Nobody type up the definitive Marverni guide in the mean time.

Definitive Marverni Guide:
Do the stuff that lets you win.
Don't do the stuff that makes you lose.

Baalz, you're out of a job

In the meantime, maybe you can provide a preview excerpt. Maybe just as to Marveni's weaknesses, say with Vanheim, for example?

Just for future reference of course...

Definitive Marverni Guide:

Early Game:
Research Blade Wind and turtle

Mid-Game:
Summon the ridiculous Iron Pigs
Cast Beserkers and they suddenly become not ridiculous

End-Game:
Buy hordes of useless Marverni troops and laugh at them
Cast Army of Gold/Lead
Cast Will of the Fates
Spam Weapons of Sharpness / Strength of Giants
Stop laughing

If you are able to create a guide that becomes MArverni a competetive nation, i will officially convert to Baalz's religion and worship you. It is the only nation i dont have a single clue how to make it remotely playable. Maybe it's just that i'm blind and stupid though

Marveni isnt that bad of a nation. Yeah thier troops are terrible, but thier mages are pretty solid. They are, however, *extremely* vulnerable in the early game when they dont have enough mages or research to compete. Mid to late tho they are fine.

I agree with DC & Aezeal. Baalz you have to post something, tempting us like this is just cruel.

Oh yeah, starting my own cult. After really studying them I think Marverni is not only competitive, but can actually be a leader in EA. But then again, I think the same about MA Atlantis, and Eriu...so you might disagree.
