Originally posted by licker: I dunno, as someone said, Pythium may not be a great nation to bother with blessings, but if you insist on doing it anyway... I'd stick with water9 and not worry about the mages
I don't insist on anything with this game, except that it is the best fantasy-themed wargame I've ever played, bar none. I'm here to learn from more experienced players and to become more experienced myself, not to insist. I figured that since I was having trouble I'd see if what I was trying was really worth it after all.
I think if I do try for a bless strategy (just to see what happens) I might take 9-Water (for the reasons everyone has given), but I probably will abandon the bless strategy for vanilla Pythium and go with Wendigo's 4-Earth idea to test out more of my options.
Thanks everybody for your help!
