Some interesting choices coming in so far. And some obvious ones Must admit though I'd have been tempted to go with the triple blessed X9X9X9X6 for Jotunheim. I like the thought of having every sacred commander I had becoming an instant thug!

One rejected build that caught my eye big time was.....

Imprisoned Oracle
F9W9E9S9 !!!!

Dominion 4
Turmoil 3
Sloth 3
Heat 3
Death 1
Misfortune 1
Drain 2

Awful scales of course, but could actually have been worse. Plus this bless with someone like Sauro or Vanheim would have been insane! Would they actually lose even a single sacred before mid-game I wonder? But thankfuuly for you all, have a guess which nation pulled this out of the hat.......... MA Ulm

It was also interesting how some nations constantly came up with good or bad designs. At first I thought it was just random, but after rejecting 11 designs for MA Ulm (8 EA Arco, 7 EA Vanheim, 7 MA Jotun) I came to the conclusion that there must be something else at work. Since the main problem wasn't that designs were unsuitable for the nation (although that was a problem) it was the huge number of design points left over each time (which I mentioned before).

But some nations rolled their choices straight off the bat. Sauro was one of them, as the two choices I gave Baalz were the first two that were created. I also created a third (which I did for everyone) and again that was fine, and better than the one Baalz rejected. Although like I did with everyone, I only offered the first two designs that I thought were viable, and did not create a load and then simply choose the best two.
