I would never use a rainbow mage for Ulm. They have no real way to use any gems other than earth and fire without independent mages, and those mages can search for the gems themselves. Ulm is much better off with a strong combat pretender or spellcaster, like an air 6 titan than a rainbow mage.

Quote:
Without a rainbow mage, Iron Faith adopts a chaotic approach to searching, sending black priests out searching normally, as well as using astral, death or 2-earth BPs for site-searching spells.
That's pretty much the standard method of searching for most nations. I wouldn't call it chaotic.

Quote:
Either give black priests 2 earth or drain-immunity, accompanied by a modest increase in cost.
This would make the iron faith theme unequivocably better than standard Ulm, since it would have more magical ability and no associated weaknesses.
