Re: Pangaea advice
Oh - the other thing that can mitigate Pangaea's sacred troops being capitol only is finding Amazon provinces. In a large enough game, the odds are fairly good you'll find one or two provinces with at least jade or onyx amazons, albeit crystal and garnet are much more rare.
The great thing about finding these is that if you're playing a heavy bless strategy, you now have a new sacred type to bring into play. If I'm not mistaken, each type of Amazon has a sacred troop - Nightmares, Gryphon Riders, etc.
But this is actually true of bless strategies in general, not specific to Pangaea, and is still gambling. Either you find a way to move your sacred troops to the combat lines (gateway, Flying Ship, Faery Trod, etc) or they may not do you enough good.
Hmmm. Anything other than Amazon provinces give other (non-national, non-summoned) sacred troops?
