Nations that seem strong/weak

Why should there be any kind of balancing factor? Abysia was certainly not anywhere close to overpowered in Dom2, being a fire nation, so why was it necessary to nerf them, (And Marignon), so terribly in Dom3?

I think it was a nerf targetted at anyone who thinks Death scale is free points, which was a lot of Dom2 players.

Now any nation that has recruitable old mages, and there are plenty, has to think long and hard if they really need those points from death scale bad enough to live with the side effects.

I'm guessing MA marigon is ignored in this subject on aging,considering that all their normal inquistors are old men,as well as their mages,if I remember correctly the youngest natural mage had old age as well,and unlike abysia,this nation does not have blood hunting capabilities like abysia to forge boots

I thought 100% poison resistance stopped Miasma?

I don't think so. A lot of PR pretenders get diseased by the second or third turn.

Swamp Survival stops Miasma. Nothing else. Though undead/demon get the Diseased affliction, it doesn't actually affect them.

Lifeless too. It doesn't do jack to Oracles.

I thought that being Cold Blooded was the main way of stopping it?

[Foodstamp]

I believe Nerfix is right. According to the manual, cold blooded units do not suffer from the domain. More than likely, the "Swamp Survival" units are probably "Cold Blooded" as well.

It makes sense for demons, undead and lifeless units to not suffer from this as well. BTW, CTis Miasma is very fun to play =)
