Really, the best way to get them to do something other than blood/fire is going to be reverse communions of navigators casting thunderstrike and soul slay.

Perhaps I didn't emphasize it enough but the A/S angle has legs through the whole game it's not just something you use until you get your blood off the ground. Thunderstrike spam is a serious threat to almost anything...there's not a hell of a lot that can carve through 19 defense cavalry fast enough when blasted by 5 lightning strikes per turn for 5 turns. The majority of things that can manage to get lightning immunity (thugs/SC mostly) are going to be things that you'll want to astral spam at. You can really play this nation rather similarly to MA Pythium if the situation dictates it only none of your mages are cap only. Also don't overlook the utility of those super-bishops - undead/demon domination will really put several nations on their back foot. You've got some real teeth even if you only use your blood for reinvigoration - though of course theres no reason you'd do that.

That's a good bloody point actually.

Baalz's won't be getting any thanks from me for this one until he stops short-changing us with his title blandness, and comes up with a bit of snappiness.

I want to read a guide on the 'Devil Worshipping Lightening Pirates', not boring old LA Marignon

LA Marignon - No one expects the infernal inquisition
LA Marignon - Seaway to hell

"Faust" being the obvious name for your pretender.

LA Marignon: How do you like your steak - bloody or charred?
