Re: Are Niefel Jarls too strong?
I wouldn't call them overpowered - more like underhanded. Yes, they have chill and BoW; yes, they have protection; yes, they are *nasty*. But it really balances out in race design.
Funny really: Niefelheim pretender should seriously be designed by terms of one of its leader-units! You can't afford not to take strong bless effects (i.e. nature-9, but is that enough?). That takes muchos DPs.
Niefelheims real mages cost 250gp apiece. Couple that with 500gp of NJ and 150gp per NG... Order-3 anyone? And their magic paths lack the vital elemental paths (except water) to *really* make the NJs rock. And they are starving for indep researchers!
500gp a pop, they are too pricy to be ganged upon and die, which means they WILL get afflictions (which in turn get them killed even quicker). You really can't mix regular units with them as NJs and NGs give chills and BoW kills. So that leaves you Jotun Giants, which get ganged upon easily...
As support mages? Not really.
