How to play Ermor

I don't know if it is a good idea as Ermor. Ermor is relatively cash poor, it's a expensive for them to build up all those temples, let alone temples with castles on top of them to keep them from getting trashed by raiders. Also, the stronger Ermor's dominion the more free undead they get, right?

Yes. And Ermor does have possible cash problems as cash is tied to (living) population, something Ermor is notorious for eradicating. So you do have a very good point. What has to be weighed is the benefits of somewhat faster dominion spread (and free undead) versus what you can do with the DPs in the form of more magic picks for your god. Both are interesting choices and it all depends on how you wish to try to win. Given that it's Ermor, if you play against an AI (only) it's all but assured that you'll win no matter what you do. The real question is which strategy is better if you play against humans. A question I'd like to see Norfleet or Zen answer.
