Perfect! That means that bleach won't be taking Abysia, which improves my chances in this game tenfold! (Since bleach, as Abysia, is spanking my butt big time in Live and Learn).

Are you an expert in Ulm, Edi? For me so far, Abysia has been the easiest nation to play successfully in MP.

No, not an expert on any nation or any strategy by any stretch of imagination, I've got very limited SP experience only, and out of those, I've been most comfortable with standard and BF Ulm (I hate IF Ulm). Abysia is one I've always liked, even if I've always had crappy luck with it, but maybe I'll have a good break this time. It's also similar enough to Ulm in some respects that it's not so far removed as Pangaea would be, for example.
