Re: Xietor
This will probably come as a surprise for most people but IMO MA Ulm isn't as terrible as it's made out to be. I think most people are either feeling the after effects of Dom II (where they are the worst nation) or the CB where Earth boots got bumped in cost and blade wind nerfed. In base, MA TC and MA Argatha are both in a worse off position (just going off the top of my head) with MA Oceania not doing too great either. Ulm troops are decent if you spread them out to avoid them clustering (and as a result eating up) too many magic attacks. Their mages, while unversatile, are actually decent in battle between earth buffs, decent prot, blade wind + magna spells. Arbalests are crappy but sappers are actually usable for their bonus + xbows. Drain 1 isn't too terrible compared to magic 3 in base if you're relying on indie mage research and drain 3 is just free points if you're planning on ending the game pre turn 50.
