Default Re: LA Man - Death and Taxes

Two things off the top of my head.

1) Owl Quills are an obvious investment for Man to help boost research.

2) I do not think Magisters can cast Wind Guide. No mage can use more gems to cast a combat spell than they have level, so Magisters can only use one Air gem barring an Air Booster. Unless they summon storm power first, I guess.

3) Man has everything needed to get a great blood economy going (judges, growth), except for Blood Mages. I think Man has more incentives then most non-blood nations to break into it, such as protecting those oh so old Magister Arcanes.

4) Defenders should almost always be left to "fire," not attack. They'll keep shooting as the enemy opponents approach. When they arrive, the front will step forward to engage in some hand to hand while the rest of the block fires AP bolts at the front lines. With 12 base presicion boosted by crossbow's 2 bonus, they'll have very good accuracy. Even shielded heavy infantry will wither infront of that kind of assault.

Nice work over all, though.
