The Ancient Olm, a viable strategy?

Just for pedantry's sake, there are 2 cave nations: Abysia is the other.

Agartha isn't a bad nation in any age. In EA and MA you can easily get into the water which gives a useful extra dimension, and in EA Agartha wouldn't be too horribly outclassed by the water specialists in a fight. Agartha also has unique summons in all ages, all of which are useful and effective. (Umbrals particularly make great thugs if gift of reasoned.)

I don't rate the Olm pretender highly: it's not a particularly good SC, Dom chassis, or powerful mage. It's not bad at any of them either, but that means it's just okay.
