Re: Ermor: Soul Gate: AAR [Easy, Slacker SP Game]
Sure sounds as if you played standard Ermor rather than Soul Gate, as you talk about using thaums (Grand Thaumaturgs?) rather than Dusk Elders and about using reanimation. Soul Gate Ermor does not reanimate, it summons spirits. Additionally, it cannot choose an 80pt castle.
Thus the title should most likely be changed to Ermor: Broken Empire AAR [Easy, Slacker SP Game]
A Soul Gate plays very differently from Broken Empire.
A Soul Gate Ermor never, ever, needs to recruit any unit for money (you might want to make an exception for exceptional indigeneous wizards - and then again, you might not), so turmoil 3 [who needs money], sloth 3 [who needs production], cold 3 [who cares about cold], death 3 [they all die anyhow], (luck or misfortune) 3 [depends on your whim], magic 3 [Soul Gate forces magic 2, so why not go for the gold] is pretty much guaranteed - and your most important use for death gems for a long, long time will be for summoning Dusk Elders and Wraith Consuls.
