How is LA R'yleh overpowered?

[Gandalf Parker]

In high-speed tests I find that the problem with LA Rlyeh is that they tend to own the oceans. The rock-paper-scissors balance takes too long to kick in. LA Ermor seems to be the balancing answer against Rlyeh. The problem (on large games) tends to be that Rlyeh takes out Atlantis and there is no Oceania. And the other land nations tend to take out Ermor before Rlyeh bursts forth from the oceans.

Id rather see an LA Oceania, maybe a stronger Atlantis. Maybe they could have some natural immunities to aid them against Rlyeh.

Altho the way that the many small-map blitz games tend to be played, and games with CBM, would not be helped by that so some sort of nerf might best be done by CBM for those players.
