Hi

I'd like to try Ermor.
You're in.

I have no problem with your nation choice as such, but as I see from your post count that you might be a new player, I'd like to note that Ashen empire is extremely micromanagement intensive. Also a bit tricky to leverage and you need to expect everyone to gang up on you. In short, it's not a nation I'd personally recommend for your first MP game. But do as you wish.

Welcome aboard 13lackGu4rd. Sharivar is not a bad choice, and I believe there is a version with more balanced special sites somewhere, right?

I agree completely. But they're soooo totally weird, I just couldn't resist..

Alas I expect to be not more then an advanced independent, no matter what nation i try (and fail) to play, so I might as well have some weird undead fun

They are cool, but for a new player they are often more of an unpleasant burden than fun. If you want to play them in a multiplayer game, I would suggest that you first play a game or 4 against the computer and that you read some guides, specifically Velusion's old guide(which technically no longer is accurate to the patched game version) but it is an awesome introduction to how Ermor plays.

Oh I always play test games... actually i doubt there's anyone who does not at least shortly test if the scales and pretenders mix well with their current race. I mean, for people like me, testing is mandatory. At least until "grudged old forum coot" status is achieved.

I do like to read strat-guides and play troughs, and then do something completely different then advised.
