Guide: MA Man - Making the best of a bad deal

[Maraxus]

Not using knights cripples Man.

I second that. I'd take Productivity 3 (actually I do in a little game at the moment) and recruit following "as many knights as possible, then fill up with longbowman".

That means the god has to start sleeping but you can live with that.

For magic, swarm is a great spell. And don't let anyone tell you, your thunder strikes are not good, because you spend air gems to cast them.

Overall, Man is a fun nation to play, allthough not among the top nations (or near the top nations. Still better then MA Agartha, though. )

Completely disagree. Knights are eye candy and way too hard to mass.

Even if you *do* buy Prod+3 - you're better off buying more longbowmen.
