I'm with Gandalf on this one, i never really felt SCs were overpowered. I both used and feared them moderatly. A modest nerf sounds about right to me.

Fixing the castle system indirectly affects this too. The one disadvantage of the otherwise overly usefull watch tower strategy was that it did not offer much protection against lone SCs with the right equipment.. Since the watch tower thing has been fixed people will have better forts and SCs will not be able to breach without an army, especially if regular armies are bigger, which it sounds like they will be. I'm playing a triple income game right now, and sieges are a huge issue.

I've always suspected that the popularity of SCs was partialy caused by laziness- it's much easier to set orders for a single SC than a whole army.
Well depends. Some SCs in uber equipment were able to massacre a single army. However, I think it was all good, like I said a bit earlier in this topic. It takes a long time and mana to equip that specific SC.
Some minor nerf is ok of course.
