Give me good reasons why R'lyeh is a balanced nation.

Even when I massed archers that one time playing R'lyeh, all he did was mindbLast them. It was probably 75 archers against 30 mind bLasters with 16 protection.

Archers just got paralyzed.

Lets calculate by a simple way: Gold Cost.
75 indy archers, no matter which type you bought,worth 75*8=600 gold.
30 mind bLasters, lets say the basic illithid, worth 1500 gold.
now,ignore everything else, how can you compare this with that,600g with 1500g?
you should try 1500/8=187 archers vs. 30 illithids and you'll found that squidfaces cannot destroy your troops before they overloaded.
It's a addlepated way to calculate. but it's enough to explain a question stupid more.


Against Squidface?
Take your time in the "Atlantis strategy" thread,you'll found that they are friable beings.
