Water magic on land?

Tuidjy said:Oh yeah, it is very hard to get decent scales for them. The fire pick of their mages makes them old, so you need a life scale, the esource heavy troops prevent you from taking sloth... all in all, Ulm is a sad, sad race.

The arbalests are decent infantry.


I agree about the units, mostly. They aren't useless, but they aren't good either.

However, Ulm has very nice choice of scales available to it.
Drain 3 and Production 3 effectively cancel each other out, and provide them with minor bonuses (to gold and to magic resistance of non-Ulmish units - the +1 mr effectively cancels Ulmish troops' weakness). They'll have lots of surplus gold flowing around, thanks to their cheap troops and mages, so they have less need for Order as well.
