No, Ashen Empire Ermor is NOT virtually indestructible. In fact, Ermorian legions really suck it hard. Sure, they're totally expendable and sprout out of the ground in ever-increasing numbers, but run them into any real opposition, and it's quite likely you'll lose them all with less than handful of kills to show for it. A single SC can slay them by the hundreds at practically no risk to himself. Longdeads, soulless, and ghouls are dog doody. They ALREADY are individually weaker than normal units by far. I regularly lose a few hundred undead at once to a drive-by priesting of composed of cheap $50 priests. Stupid frickin' priests. Soul Gate Ermor trades off the really wimpy but absolutely enormous legions of the dead for somewhat less numerous, but more effective, ghost legions, that suffer from ubiquitous 0 protection and fold over and die to anything with magic weapons. In both cases, Ermor's national mages are somewhat narrow in focus, with only Dusk Elders having but a single random pick. This is made up for in part by a pretender that can afford to burn a lot of nation points on magics, but you can't be everywhere at once.

Take it from me, the board's resident Ermor fanatic: Ermor is not as impressive as everyone would have you believe. I like them anyway, though.
