Are Niefel Jarls too strong?

OK, but then I want to be able to make midget-sized items for my Hoburg strike force!

Boots of the Behemoth... check... with the XXS discount, that will be...

Another important detail about the Jarls - they enter the sea and alone are able to take the provinces, very important in games without the aquatic races.

Naturally. Though the trample boots will still only help you against things smaller than yourself...

I wondered about this myself in Dom I, after seeing the spell AI cast the spell on its own I decided to follow suit just in case.

The Jarls are ridicolously strong, compared that they are natural nation units.
