MA Man in latest CBM

Well, the one thing to fix that is not having "better" but different troops.
Bowmen and Knights (which are Man's army according to the nation description) would both be recruited if you couldn't spend your gold on clearly better sacreds.

The other aspect is the question of upkeep, as is you can have roughly 2 knights, 5 wardens, or 7 Longbowmen in you army for the same cost. With those numbers I think Wardens are a rather apparent better choice for your standing army.

Anyway, this problem is much deeper ingrained in the system and can't be solved easily.
A starter might be to rebalance the cost of the knights - they are 50% more expensive than Marignon's equivalent, for instance.
