Water9 Nature3or4 Pretender is a really good combo. There are some really nasty poison strategies that go hand in hand with water magic... .

I wouldn't want a nature4 blessing since both the priests and the Shamans will go charging into berserked melee if hit by a stray arrow. That said I too recommend going "toxic" with C'Tis since it's got resistant units as well as so easy access to higher tier undead.

instead of screaming like a mad sheep why dont you post some hints or tipps for me, so i can finally enjoy c'tis ? I dont get you...

Don't take my words for it. You'll need to test it with Sabber's simulator. But I think Elite warriors can overwhelm Ulm Infantries because of their high damage trident and their ease to be emassed in huge number. You need a good economy to support them but that's the case for winning in most situation.

The only weak points of C'tis regular units, namely elite warriors, are their vulnerablility to good missle troops such as Longbows. But neither Ulm or Abysia has it.

The other regular units of C'tis are at least average. Their Heavy Infantry has protection of 16, better than a lot of other nations. But of course, you can't beat Ulm or Abysia in their game, i.e, tank warfare.

C'tis has several good counters to slow heavies like Ulm and Abysia.

Death Cloud does armor negating damage on a wide area and the Sauromancers are good at it. The Shamen can gather for a communion and use spells that disregard armor like Poison Cloud or Stellar Cascades (among others). Ulm with its low MR troops and lack of morale support is particularly vulnerable to spells like Terror.

And don't forget rituals (Leprosy, etc.)

For summons, try Ghosts. They eat HI like donuts.

Quite right.

What I really wanted to say is that your pretender should EVENTUALLY have nature4 (items, empowerment etc.).
