I wouldn't say Jotuns are too powerful in MA and Pangaea needs much micro to be played well, but as for Caelum-Marignon, maybe it's worth switching Caelum and Machaka?

Jotun is quite average in MA imo

caelum - marignon i considered weak... pythium - ulm however is strong

I think that Caelum-Bandar and Machaka-Marignon will be better.
As for Pythium-Ulm... Yes, this pair has nice potential but there should be strong and weak pairs. It's almost inevitable, I think.

of course its inevitable in such a complex game

but considering that there is still diplomacy and a bit luck, i think its quite balanced

No, I will have to pass on this game then.

I've played enough vanilla games and I'm tired of seeing the same inappropriately priced units being abused OVER and over. Don't want to experience that again.

Btw, why don't the developers fix all these "inappropriate prices"? What do they say on this?

It's been said before, but the devs just aren't interested in devoting much time to balance, as opposed to bug fixing and new content. It's assumed that those who feel there are significant balance issues will use or create balance mods.

Yes, it is as QM says. We discussed this with them during the beta and they made thier position quite clear.

For all intents and purposes, CBM *is* the balance fix that the devs refused to make. Thats why I dont understand your hesitancy to use it.
