Yeah thats why i said 8 nations because in this extreme setup i think few will play e.g. man / marignon etc. because they have little abilities to hoard anything.

Every nation has something that they can forge for long term investment fairly easily using only their national mages.

For example:
Abysia: Soul contracts, clams.
Atlantis: Clams.
Pythium: Clams.
Caelum: Clams.
Arcoscephale: Clams.
C'tis: Fever Fetishes, clams.
Ermor: Clams.
Jotunheim: Soul Contracts, clams.
Man: Clams, fever fetishes.
Marignon: Clams, fever fetishes.
Pangaea: Earth blood stones, soul contracts.
R'lyeh: Clams.
Ulm(Default): Soul contracts.
Ulm(Iron Faith): Soul Contracts, clams.
Ulm(Black Forest): Vampire Lords.
Vanheim: Clams, earth blood stones, soul contracts.
Mictlan: Clams, soul contracts.
Machaka: Fever Fetishes.
T'ien C'Hi: Clams, fever fetishes, earth blood stones.

Every nation has the ability to invest their gems. Some just take a bit more work than others.

This way he lacks flying if he hasn't built in but since staff of storms is so omnipresent boots of flying are only good for strategic mobility .

Strategic mobility is the major point of flying boots.
