ShatnerMA Noob to Intermediate (Running)

Ashdod and Ermor are at war too. When the first scount went out, I found Ermor very soon.
I looked at the map, and I see no easy border between us. We are too close, and there is no clear chokepoint that can work as a defensive border. We are, thus, doomed to battle each other. As I saw Ermor has an awake god, I thought the faster the war starts, the better for me, as probably time runs in Ermor's favor.
I choosed to assault then. However, with the Rollback I stalled one turn, which ruined my attack, and after some chit-chat about possible diplomatic solutions, we finally didn't find one. There has been no big battles. Ermor has a big, concentrated, 160+ units with mage support army, while I have several different armies with a couple troops. We have been dancing around, and so far, I 've lost more troops (when his big army connect, it kills my small armies), but I've won more provinces.

My build is pretty standard for giant nations: Very big Earth and Nature bless, for high armor, reinvigoration and regeneration. Ermor has a high Astral, low earth bless.
