Default Re: EA Vanheim build order and long term strat

I think with magic-1 scales it's worth it for Van to build a Temple + Lab in a tribal province sometime around the end of first year, for the research benefits. You can fort it up later for 800 gold, and your PD is good enough to hold off barbarians. I'd build in a deer tribe province if possible, to try to get an AN mage for rainbow armor.

Quills are const-0 in CBM, so you usually don't need to research at all to build them in MP. I agree that you don't need the A gems until later, but when you do get there it's nice to have some saved up.
