I think maybe some of the drastic changes in the game were not tested enough when going from Dominions 2 to Dominions 3. The two changes that I think have had a huge impact on this situation are the double income changes and the sleeping/imprisoned pretenders freeing up points.

Ummm... Actually we tested it fine. The first words out of my mouth when I saw the Imprisoned option in the beta were: "Blesses will be insanely powerful. Who cares if your pretender is imprisoned?? Your troops will be unstoppable! He could never arrive, for all they would care."

But, as with many things that I, and other beta testers brought up, it was ignored. The fact is simply this, guys: The Dominions devs just dont play MP enough. They dont understand imbalance like a MP-player understands it. For goodness sake they didnt even know what "skelly-spam" was until I knocked them over the head with it.

It is up to the modders to balance Dom3 for MP.
