Balanced Nations

[Nikelaos]

I think bogarus would quite easily dominate that group played properly. Their one weakness is they are vulnerable to rushes... and there are no rush nations on the list.

They have the mages to exploit ulm's MR weakness , the druzinha can compete well with tien chi cavalry. H3 priests and ease of access of penetration boosters means they can combat ktonian undead/vampires/ancestor ghosts/general undead. They *will* have far superior research and though starets arent sacred you've got a hell of alot of rp for 250 gold so you'll have a huge research lead by the time upkeep creeps up on you. Then you have some great magic diversity to put the research to use...including blood which makes you the only blood nation there bar ulm who can compete with you at all in other magic areas.

Never thought I would ever say "bogarus would quite easily dominate" but putting em up against other nations considered "weak" and they seem to really shine for me. I actually don't believe they fully deserve the reputation they've gained.
