Re: Baalz' guides
Well empirical data from the HOF seems to support me.
But:
Fine, so maybe you spend 200 more rp and get summon earthpower. That's still going to happen before aby hits blood 6.
Rereading your original post, you use the pretender to site search. That means you can't also use it to research.
Have you actually tried using indy archers? What happens is this: enemy routes, archers charge forward and catch on fire. It's not great.
A player using fire immune/mistform/shockwave oreiads or thunderstriking/orb lightning eagle kings would seem to be a real pain to deal with raiding wise. Just as examples.
And even after you make it to a solid blood economy, your only blood cross paths are death on vampires, whatever you have on your pretender, and then a smidgen of astral on the warlocks. I wouldn't base a strategy on counting on getting poseidon.
That's like what I get with mictlan, except worse in every way. And oh by the way enjoy putting up with rain of toads. Want to attack me in retaliation? My beast bats are going to be too tough for you (thinking f9w4b4 bless + bloodlust). You add salamanders, I add slingers.
If the EA aby toolbox is basically its pretender, its cap only blood hunter, its firemages, and its heavy infantry, that's just a lot less than a lot of other nations.
Anyhow baalz you're in some ways a victim of your own success... you've written plenty of other EA guides; the second I read a new guide, I'm imagining facing off against nations you've already written guides for.
