Ermor has taken over first place in army size from Machaka.

One problem is that the army size graph does not take into account the relative worth of the actual troop. An Ermor soulless therefore counts exactly the same as an Ulm knight in the graph, when the knight is maybe 50 times as powerful. So Ermor will skyrocket to the top of the army size graph and eventually squash all the other nations into the bottom of the scale such that it becomes totally meaningless. Ermor with 7 provinces and high dominion (assuming he is either AE or SG) is plenty to begin the exponential growth in army size.

Ya, problem is I dont have enough gold to recruit a bunch of air two mages, or knights, but I am slowly taking out the knights with masses of spears to repel em, and LBS to fire at their archers to cause em to morale and flee.

Dang, I am close ermor as my scout just revealed, this could be a problem. Lucky I can handly recruit angels to smite him with and I have high Dom!!! Fere my Ermor for if you attack me the wrath of the heavens shall be brought apone you, and it shall be your doom!!!. Death to the Dead!!!

I'm just ignoring the knights + longbow provinces around my capital.

Who keeps hearing this whispering?? I hope it's not about me? I worry too much, it can't be.
