Noob, needs advice please

Hopefully this isn't hijacking the thread or that,

I usually play the Nefelheim, with the Beholder Pretender (mod)
Assuming I'm playing a 120 land areas, with 30 ocean areas map, Early ages.


What would sum good (vulnerable/weak) opponents be?

I figure with me having a high dominion, the Abyssia would be weaker because they like heat,
Strong dominion (with cold 3pts) makes the my land & the surrounding provinces colder, weakening them

& Ermor don't look to stong.

For Ocean going I choose Oceania, becuase their magic is crippled on land, but in the ocean they are above average.


P.S the Glamor ability, does that really help during battles?
I just don't see how it would help.

Big N invading Abysia is a BAD investment, usually. If we're talking early game, that means fighting them on their dominion, and your best units (neifle giants and jarls) get substantial stat penalties in hot lands. Of course, if we're talking AI, then the chances are they'll be poorly played.

As for Glamour, its a huge bonus in combat. On the field Glamour translates into "mirror image", which means for every additional immage, a soldier might hit the fake one instead of the real unit. Adds a lot to the defense and survivability of units. Though the real advantage of glamor is the stealth and (in MP) not showing up on the tactical map.

cheers for that

any suggestions then?
